Focus Features has revealed the new poster for The Northman movie, which is scheduled to open in theaters on April 22, 2022. Scroll down to view the new poster.
From visionary director Robert Eggers (The Lighthouse, The Witch), the film was written by Eggers and Sjón.
The Northman movie is an action-filled epic that follows a young Viking prince on his quest to avenge his father’s murder.
The film features an all-star cast that includes Alexander Skarsgård, Nicole Kidman, Claes Bang, Anya Taylor-Joy, Gustav Lindh, Ethan Hawke, Björk, and Willem Dafoe.
The producers of the film are Lars Knudsen, Mark Huffman, and New Regency.
Eggers’ last film was The Lighthouse (A24), a hypnotic and hallucinatory tale of two lighthouse keepers on a remote and mysterious New England island in the 1890s.
Before that, he directed The Witch (A24), which was set in 1630 New England. In the film, an English farmer relocates his wife and five children to a remote plot of land on the edge of an ominous forest – within which lurks an unknown evil.
Strange and unsettling things begin to happen almost immediately – animals turn malevolent, crops fail, and one child disappears as another becomes seemingly possessed by an evil spirit. With suspicion and paranoia mounting, family members accuse teenage daughter Thomasin of witchcraft, charges she adamantly denies.
As circumstances grow more treacherous, each family member’s faith, loyalty, and love become tested in shocking and unforgettable ways.
