Lily-Rose Depp graced the Los Angeles premiere of Nosferatu in a stunning silver gown, channeling elegance and the eerie aesthetic of the upcoming horror film. The event, held at the TCL Chinese Theater on December 12, celebrated the Robert Eggers-directed remake of the 1922 silent classic. Depp, 25, portrays Ellen Hutter, a character central to the film’s chilling love triangle inspired by Bram Stoker’s Dracula.

Her floor-length satin dress, featuring an embroidered overlay, perfectly complemented her sultry makeup—nude smokey eyes, a matte lip, and peach-toned cheeks. Depp’s braided hairstyle, diamond drop earrings, and understated accessories added to her angelic look. On the red carpet, she posed alongside her castmates, including Bill Skarsgård, Nicholas Hoult, Willem Dafoe, and director Robert Eggers.

Nosferatu follows real estate salesman Thomas Hutter (Hoult) as he navigates a disturbing connection between his client, Count Orlok (Skarsgård), and his wife, Ellen. Eggers praised Depp’s commitment to the role, noting she had extensively studied Dracula adaptations, which deeply resonated during her audition.

The premiere also spotlighted other bold fashion choices. Emma Corrin stood out in a sheer strapless dress with dramatic lace detailing, while Dafoe opted for a subtle contrast with a gray shirt under his black suit.

Set for a Christmas Day release, Nosferatu promises to delve deeper into its dark themes and gothic romance, further modernizing the century-old tale. Depp’s performance, paired with Eggers’ visionary direction, seeks to captivate audiences with its blend of horror and artistry.
