Overview of 'Werwulf'
Lily-Rose Depp, known for her fashion icon status and as a Chanel ambassador, is currently filming the medieval horror film *Werwulf* in Surrey, England. Directed by Robert Eggers, the film is set in a 13th-century village plagued by a mysterious creature. The production has created a detailed set in Bourne Wood, featuring thatched houses, a church, and a graveyard, all designed to immerse viewers in the historical context.
Filming Details and Setting
The set of *Werwulf* includes a full-scale church and an eerie graveyard, where Depp has been photographed in a brown smock and burgundy headscarf, a stark contrast to her usual glamorous appearance. Scenes have been shot in muddy conditions, with Depp seen holding a swaddled baby amidst simple wooden crosses. The film also features notable actors such as Willem Dafoe and Aaron Taylor-Johnson, both of whom have previously collaborated with Depp in other projects. Additional filming locations include Dartmoor, where medieval-style buildings have been constructed.
