The first trailer for Robert Eggers' upcoming Viking film The Northman has been unveiled, and shows Björk in her role as The Slav Witch.
In August last year, Björk was confirmed to play a role in Robert Eggers' upcoming Viking film The Northman. The IMDb synopsis reads: "Set in Iceland at the turn of the 10th century, a Nordic prince sets out on a mission of revenge after his father is murdered."
This afternoon (20 December) the first trailer for the film has been released, and gives a glimpse of Björk in her role as The Slav Witch.
Alexander Skarsgård, Nicole Kidman, Claes Bang, Anya Taylor-Joy, Ethan Hawke and Willem Dafoe will also star in the film.
The Northman is set for release in April 2022.
