Sonic the Hedgehog Director Addresses If Robotnik Will Be Re-Cast in the Future

Despite a long list of stars acting in the Sonic the Hedgehog films, like Idris Elba as Knuckles and James Marsden as Tom, one sticks out: Jim Carrey as Dr. Ivo Robotnik aka Eggman. Loosely adapted from the character of the same name in the original Sonic the Hedgehog, Carrey brought forth the egotistical side of the genius doctor in a way that audiences adored. Yet, his comments on retirement have left some wondering what may happen to the character in the future. Fortunately, director Jeff Fowler gave us at ComicBook some insight on the topic and what to expect.

No, Nosferatu Is Not the Vampire’s Name (It’s Not Dracula Either)

In the early days of horror films, movies such as Dracula, The Mummy, and The Invisible Man chose simple titles by using the name of the central monster in their stories. However, before Universal Pictures introduced their collection of classic monsters, German director F.W. Murnau presented audiences with Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror, a film that will soon receive a fresh remake from Robert Eggers. Although the 1922 version of Nosferatu is an influential piece of pop culture, it’s not widely known that the vampire’s real name isn’t actually Nosferatu. Instead, Max Schreck portrayed the eerie Count Orlok in the original film, with Bill Skarsgård assuming the role for the upcoming remake, which is set to premiere on December 25th.
