After the Vikings series, it's a sin not to watch :)

An excellent mini-series, a short and accessible version of the existence of the Vikings, although because of some places (for example, about sacrifices), you can argue yourself hoarse. But in general, it is very accurate and very informative and not boring at all. Special thanks to the cameraman for the beautifully shot landscapes. I really liked everything)

@Ivarden:

The creator of the historical epic Vikings, Michael Hearst, returns to the familiar world of Scandinavian myths, legends and harsh warriors. For Prime Video streaming, Hearst will direct the drama series Bloodaxe. MGM Television Studio will handle the production.

The upcoming series will focus on the semi-legendary King of Norway Eirik the Bloodaxe (885-954), also known as Eirik the Fratricide. The series will tell the story of his formation and transformation into one of the most famous Viking rulers in history. Attention will also be paid to his formidable wife Gunnhild, nicknamed the Mother of Kings because she bore Eirik eight sons. They are fighting for the Norwegian throne, while a battle is raging for the country between fierce rivals, surrounded by betrayal and strife. A war is coming, bringing with it chaos, which will engulf the kingdom and allow the rulers of other Scandinavian countries, as well as the powerful English ruler, to claim the territories. The new Viking saga promises to be deafening, devastating, magnetic and enchanting.

The upcoming Bloodaxe, despite its similar themes, real historical characters and events, is unrelated to Michael Hearst's two previous series Vikings and Vikings: Valhalla, which he created for the channel. History and Netflix, respectively. The production team consists of Hearst himself, his son Horatio Hearst, Steve Starkey, and John Weber.
