“I have Count Orlok’s prosthetic penis framed at home,” Hoult told co-star Lily-Rose Depp. “There’s a scene where Bill Skarsgård is slurping my blood, and Robert Eggers asked afterwards, ‘How was that for you?’… And I said, ‘I could feel his prosthetic penis on my leg.’”

Bill Skarsgård apparently went into a super dark place during his performance as Count Orlok in director Robert Eggers ’ upcoming vampire film Nosferatu . He’s played some deranged and evil characters in the past with Pennywise The Clown from It,

Like most Nosferatu stories, Orlok is represented in Eggers’ film as more of a horror than a hunk; he also represents a sort of forbidden desire for Ellen. “To have the attraction to this figure… I think he was probably a beautiful man at some point, but now he’s covered in maggots,” the director said. “That’s interesting to me.”
