Those of you who are glued to the Net during these still pandemic times might recall that the last time I lent a little attention to the Focus Features upcoming film “The Northman” was way, way back in December when we got the Official Trailer (which you can review by clicking that highlighted text). While I don’t know if another one is coming, I wanted to revisit the topic since the movie is being released in a few weeks. This post presents a few of the promotional posters that I found around the web and it showcases some Hollywood greats in true Viking style. I’ve also added the premise and casting for good measure.
