Robert Eggers is one of the most popular and richest Film Director who was born on July 7, 1983 in Lee, United States.
Eggers grew up in Lee, New Hampshire. His parents are Kelly (née Houston) and Walter Eggers, and he has two brothers, Max and Sam. He moved to New York City in 2001 to attend an acting conservatory. He was inspired by his childhood in New England, when he frequently visited the Plimoth Plantation, to write his first feature.
In July 2015, it was reported that Eggers would write and direct a remake of the 1922 silent film Nosferatu, based on the Dracula mythology. The film is set to be produced by Jay Van Hoy and Lars Knudsen for Studio 8. In November 2016, Eggers expressed surprise that the Nosferatu remake was going to be his second film, saying “It feels ugly and blasphemous and egomaniacal and disgusting for a filmmaker in my place to do ‘Nosferatu’ next. I was really planning on waiting a while, but that’s how fate shook out.” Eggers had previously directed his high school’s performance of the Nosferatu play, and was hired to direct a professional version of the play due to his work. Eggers credited this as the event that inspired him to pursue a career in filmmaking. The film has since been put on hold.
