shirtless as a Viking will do the required task? His epic historical adventure THE NORTH MAN, directed and written by Robert Eggers (he did Willem Dafoe's Lighthouse before), will arrive into cinemas April 22nd bringing to us an action filled epic that follows a young Viking prince on his quest to avenge his father's murder. I hear the movie is extremely brutal and gory, which probably shouldn't surprise us given it is about the bloodthirsty and violent Vikings. So it is not for the faint hearted, both for the

violence and Alexander's abs. He even said that he probably wouldn't do another movie so bloody and that he does not know where to go next with his career after this brutal experience. Poet and writer Sjon from Iceland helped Eggers pen the script for this historical movie, and beside Alexander Skarsgard, the cast of the film also includes painfully bad Nicole Kidman as Queen Gudrun , Ethan Hawke as King Aurvandil, Willem Dafoe as Heimir the Fool, Anya Taylor Joy as Olga of the Birch Forest, Claes Bang as Fjölnir and Iceland's own weird singer Björk as the Slav Witch Seeress.

Alexander Skargard plays the lead role

 

THE NORTH MAN 

Set at the turn of the 10th century, in year 914 to be more precise,  in the cold country of Iceland, has the story which centres on a Viking named Amleth (Alexander Skarsgård), who witnesses the murder of his father, King Aurvandil (Ethan Hawke), at the hands of his uncle, Fjolnir the Brotherless (Claes Bang). With his mother, Queen Gudrun (Nicole Kidman) now captured, Amleth flees his native land, but not before declaring his revenge on those who have wronged him.

DID YOU KNOW?

The film, which cost about $60 million to make, was supposed to start production in the tragic month of March 2020 when Covid outbreak started. It is interesting that Skargard originally became famous for his role in True Blood series in which he played Eric Northman, a 10th century Viking who was turned into a Vampire. Meanwhile, Anya Taylor Joy already played in a Viking film before, in 2015's Viking Quest. Nicole Kidman who is just nine years older than Alexander in reality, plays his mother, she previously played in Big Little Lies his wife whom he abuses, to make things even more chaotic, she was raped in Dogville by his father Stellan Skarsgard! The film takes place in what constitutes modern Scotland, Ukraine and Iceland.
