While Leo DiCaprio locking horns with Mel Gibson in their purported Viking picture is something we can all get excited about in the months and possibly years to come, Nicolas Winding Refn’s VALHALLA RISING sounds equally badass. And it’s already upon us. Scope the longer, more badass second trailer for the film underneath!
Co-written with Refn by Roy Jacobsen, VALHALLA RISING goes like this:
For years, One-Eye, a mute warrior of supernatural strength, has been held prisoner by the chieftain Barde. Aided by a boy, Are, he kills his captor and together they escape, beginning a journey into the heart of darkness. On their flight, One-Eye and Are board a Viking vessel but the ship is soon engulfed by an endless fog that first disintegrates as they sight an unknown land. As the new land reveals its secrets and the Vikings meet a ghastly fate, One-Eye discovers his true self.
Mads Mikkelsen plays One-Eye, with support coming from Jamie Sives, Ewan Stewart, Gary Lewis, Callum Mitchell, Alexander Morton and Andrew Flanagan.
VALHALL RISING is currently playing in select cities across the country (U.S.), check out the Official Site for the film for more.
Mikkelsen will star alongside Milla and her gorgeous ass in THE THREE MUSKETEERS!
