Film fans have been raving about Nosferatu since its release.

It's the latest take on the classic Bram Stoker novel Dracula, and a remake of the 1922 film by F W Murnau. The movie had its international release on Christmas Day last year and was met by positive reviews and successful box office sales, with fans being left "breathless" by the "terrifying" scenes.

It features Bill Skarsgård as Count Orlok, the vampire also known as Nosferatu, with the actor giving out strange gifts to his co-stars. Joining him on the cast are British stars Nicholas Hoult, Emma Corrin, Ralph Ineson and Aaron Taylor-Johnson.

The cast have all been busy promoting the film, with clips from various interviews often going viral on TikTok. But have you ever wondered about the cast's real lives?

Swedish actor Bill takes on the role of Nosferatu, and has good from in horror movies. He previously portrayed Pennywise in It and its sequel, and will reprise the role in the television series coming out this year.

He is the son of actor Stellan Skarsgård, who has appeared in the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, and also the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Dr Erik Selvig. Bill isn't the only actor child of Stellan, though.

Brother Alexander is best known for playing vampire Eric Northman in True Blood. Their brother Gustaf has appeared in the likes of HBO's Westworld, while Stellan's youngest son, Valter, is also an actor in Sweden.

Aside from acting, Bill is in a relationship with Swedish actress Alida Morberg. They have two children together, born in 2018 and 2023.

Last February (2024), Bill was arrested and fined for marijuana possession in Sweden.

It is thought Bill has a net worth of around $5million (£4.1m), according to Celebrity Net Worth.

Lily-Rose Depp

Like her co-star Bill, Lily-Rose Depp comes from a famous family. Her dad is divisive actor Johnny Depp and her mother is French actress, singer and model Vanessa Paradis.

The star, 25, started picking up small roles around 10 years ago but got her big break in 2023. She played the lead character Jocelyn in controversial series The Idol, which also starred the likes of The Weeknd, Troye Sivan and Blackpink's Jennie.

However it appears any accusation of her just being a nepo baby are thrown out of the window with her Nosferatu role. The Hollywood Reporter said that the film "belongs to Depp, whose performance is a revelation".

Lily has been dating rapper Danielle Balbuena, aka 070 Shake, since January 2023. She previously dated actor Timothee Chalamet.

While nowhere near her father's level of fame and fortune, Celebrity Net Worth reckon she's worth a tidy $2million (£1.6m).
