The only surprise today with Nosferatu's four Oscar nominations is that four of the six nominees have somehow never been nominated before. Though if you ask the nominees, every film they've worked on together is just a way to hone their skills for the next project.

Director Robert Eggers, fresh off his work on the acclaimed Nosferatu, will write, along with writing partner Sjón, and direct a sequel to the Jim Henson-directed cult classic for TriStar Pictures, EW has learned.
