The Northman centers on Viking Prince Amleth, played by Alexander Skarsgård, seeking vengeance for his father’s death at the hands of his brother, King Aurvandil War-Raven, portrayed by Hawke. Directed by Robert Eggers, the film is a grand spectacle with intense battles driving the narrative. Hawke’s appearance, albeit brief, adds to the movie’s compelling start, and he is part of a remarkable ensemble cast featuring Nicole Kidman, Willem Dafoe, Anya Taylor-Joy, and Björk.
