New Delhi, Oct. 6 -- 'Prime Video' revealed first-look images of the highly anticipated new series, 'Bloodaxe'. The series comes from showrunners Michael Hirst (creator of 'Vikings') and Horatio Hirst. 'Bloodaxe' has been picked up for a second season, which is currently in production in Ireland.
In season one, 'Bloodaxe' chronicles the rise of one of history's most famous Norse raiders, Erik Bloodaxe (Xavier Molyneux) and his formidable wife Gunnhild, Mother of Kings (Jessica Madsen). As they fight for the throne of Norway, the land is torn apart by fierce rivals, shifting loyalties and bloody betrayals. With war looming and chaos consuming the kingdom, drawing in the ruthless Kings of other Scandinavian countries and even a powerful English ruler, the stage is set for a thundering, cataclysmic, compelling and utterly magical new Norse Saga.
The first season stars Xavier Molyneux, Jessica Madsen, Karlis Arnolds Avots, Levi Miller, Rod Hallett, Alina Tomnikov, Sisse Marie, Rune Temte and Jesper Christensen.
'Bloodaxe' is executive produced by Michael and Horatio Hirst, who also show-run and write. Additional executive producers include Morgan O'Sullivan under his 'O'Sullivan Productions' label, Steve Stark under his 'Toluca Pictures' label, Arturo Interian, John Weber and Sheila Hockin.
