The wait for Robert Egger‘s highly anticipated film The Northman, starring Alexander Skarsgård, is nearly over with it arriving in theaters later this month, but you can get your tickets now!
Skarsgård stars as Viking prince Amleth, who watches his father (Ethan Hawke) die after being betrayed by his uncle Fjölnir (Claes Bang) who then takes Amleth’s mother (Nicole Kidman) prisoner. Amleth has spent his whole life repeating the mantra, “I will avenge you, Father. I will save you, Mother. I will kill you, Fjölnir.”
Anya Taylor Joy, Björk, Nicole Kidman, and Willem Defoe (The Lighthouse) also star in this brutal epic tale. Lars Knudsen, Mark Huffman, and New Regency produce along with Focus Features.
Eggers, who also directed the award-winning films The Witch and The Lighthouse, co-wrote the film with Icelandic novelist and poet Sjón.
Witness the rise of The Northman in theaters on April 22, 2022, from Universal Pictures.
