THE WITCH Director Robert Eggers is Getting an Impressive Cast of Actors For His Viking Film THE NORTHMAN

Robert Eggers, the director behind the critically acclaimed horror film, The Witch and the upcoming phycological horror thriller, The Lighthouse, is assembling an all-star ensemble cast for his next movie The Northman.

The movie is described as a “Viking revenge saga set in Iceland at the turn of the 10th century.” Eggers wrote the screenplay with Icelandic poet and novelist, Sjón.

As far as the cast goes, Nicole Kidman, Alexander Skarsgård, Anja Taylor-Joy, Bill Skarsgård, and Willem Dafoe are all in talks to star this film. That’s an impressive ensemble line-up and it would be pretty awesome if he ended up getting these actors to star in his film.

The films that Eggers has made have been spectacular. The attention to detail that he puts into the visuals, story, and characters is phenomenal and I can’t wait to see how this Viking revenge thriller of his turns out! It’s about time we get a new Viking movie!
