The Northman

[Deck Rickard]

Looking pretty freaking good.



Isnt there a Hamlet movie in the making with Denzel Washington or so?

There is? He seems a bit old for that. He just did Macbeth though.

Oh yeah, it was Macbeth, not Hamlet.
My bad.

 

[Gothamsknight]

I've watched the trailer so many times at this point. seriously can't wait!

 

[HammerDown]

This looks pretty wild and also somewhat generic in parts too. Anyways definitely something to keep an eye on.

So Conan the Barbarian influence is confirmed (where's my 4K UHD of CtB by the way?).

I wonder what's the budget of the film.

I wonder what's the budget of the film.

I think Ralph Ineson said it was around $60 Million.

Robert Eggers should be in high demand after this film if he isn't already. I'd rather see him continue to make films like this though.

He’s making a Nosferatu movie after this.

 

[OutOfBoose]

In the interview above he says he'd prefer to do a smaller movie next time. More control etc.

We'll see how that works out.

[Arachnerd]

Nosferatu or bust, Eggers.

 

[Gold Samurai]

If those braces are the actress' actual braces they might be painted out in the release version. If not then I guess Asgard has a good dental plan.

The movie comes to a halt during a scene with a 1000 soldiers because someone loses their retainer

 

[Gothamsknight]

I really really hope he does nosferatu next.

Funny thing is though, these days, a $60 million film is considered small lol.

Still, it shows that you can make a stunning, epic looking film with big names on a fairly modest budget. Insane that you have studios sinking hundreds of millions into various projects that don’t look half this good.

 

[Persona]

Especially insane when so much of those huge budgets is going to boatloads of CG that don't look that much better than what's running on a PS5.

 

[-Arya-]

Mid budget movies are virtually nonexistent these days. Happy to see this get made

 

[Doctor Jones]

Saw this trailer with Nightmare Alley. Goddamn.

I'd like to see a Thor film like this.

 

[shauner111]

If Anya is busy with Furiosa, Eggers will put Nosferatu off for his fifth film. He's not gonna make his dream project without every single spoke in the wheel. Either way, I'm excited for everything this guy makes.

It doesn't matter if he's suddenly a huge get for studios after The Northman, he refuses to make anything but period pieces. I can't for him to make a Rasputin movie/series at some point.

 

[TheVileOne]

Everyone should watch Vinland Saga to get themselves ready for this movie.

 

[Sawyer]

I literally only just realized this isn’t an A24 film. It’s like I thought that company owned their directors for life.

 

[Gothamsknight]

This is easily in my top 3 most anticipated films of 2022. I truly truly hope this doesn't get slept on.
