Jarin Blaschke brings color to the world of 'Nosferatu'

The unsurprising surprise hit of late 2024 - early 2025 was undoubtedly Robert Eggers’ gothic horror retelling of Nosferatu. The familiar story of Count Orlok, portrayed by Bill Skarsgård, is captured from a fresh perspective, through the eyes and nightmarish life of Ellen, played by Lily-Rose Depp. The two are accompanied in their gory ventures by other talented actors, including Nicholas Hoult, Willem Dafoe, Emma Corrin, and Aaron Taylor-Johnson.

The not only thematically but visually striking piece is lensed by none other than the director’s go-to collaborator, cinematographer Jarin Blaschke. Thanks to Jarin joining us on this episode, we got to take a peek behind the curtains of the rocky but well worth it road to finally making the film, the price of success, and the way the light hits the fearsome Count.
