Nosferatu star Nicholas Hoult says Bill Skarsgård’s intimidating "physical presence" as Count Orlok terrified him on set of the vampire horror

Nicholas Hoult in Nosferatu .

From what we have seen so far from the Nosferatu trailer and little sneak peeks, Bill Skarsgård looks completely unrecognizable as Count Orlok in Robert Eggers’s upcoming horror movie remake. But co-star Nicholas Hoult says the IT star was much more frightening on set.

"Bill's very intimidating. He's a physical presence. You know? He's a tall, big guy," said Hoult to GamesRadar+ at the UK premiere of Nosferatu. "Then he had the big costume on top of that, and his hat, and the makeup, and the physicality he brought to the character, but also the intensity. It's a wonderful performance. I'm excited for people to see it."
