"In an ancient land of ice & snow, traitors with dark desires lurk in the shadows…" Magnolia has debuted a trailer for a Norwegian action movie called The Last King, directed by filmmaker Nils Gaup. The story is about two men that have to protect an illegitimate son born in ancient Norway during a civil war. This actually looks awesome - there's even tons of skiing action, plus swords and bows & arrows, everything else. It's obviously playing at the "Game of Thrones" fans, but also looks like it might be a lot of fun to watch. The cast includes Kristofer Hivju, Nikolaj Lie Kaas, Jakob Oftebro, and Thorbjørn Harr. Give it a look.
Here's the official trailer (+ poster) for Nils Gaup's The Last King, in high def from Apple:
In the year 1206 Norway is raged by civil war. The King's illegitimate infant son, Håkon Håkonsson, which half the kingdom wants killed off, is guarded in secrecy by two men. The Last King is the story of the escape that changed the history of Norway forever. The Last King is directed by Norwegian filmmaker Nils Gaup, of films like Journey to the Christmas Star, The Kautokeino Rebellion, The North Star, and Shipwrecked previously. The screenplay is written by Ravn Lanesskog. The film first opened in Norway in February this year. Magnolia Pictures will release The Last King in US theaters + VOD starting June 17th.
