K.J. Yossman “The Northman” star Ingvar Sigurdsson has replaced Joseph Mawle in Middle Ages drama “King & Conqueror.” Sigurdsson, who has also appeared in “Everest” and “Killing Eve,” will take on the role of Fitzosbern, protector of William of Normandy.
He’s described as “a grounded and straightforward soldier who has stood beside William his whole life” and the closest thing William has to a friend.
Sigurdsson joins “Happy Valley’s” James Norton and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau in the upcoming CBS Studios and BBC drama series. Norton plays Harold, Earl of Wessex while Coster-Waldau is William, Duke of Normandy. “Harold of Wessex and William of Normandy were two men destined to meet at the Battle of Hastings in 1066; two allies with no design on the British throne, who found themselves forced by circumstance and personal obsession into a war for possession of its crown,” reads the logline.
The show, which has just wrapped in Iceland, also announced on Monday that it will feature “Interview With the Vampire” actor Elander Moore as cruel and devious aristocrat Morcar, “Industry’s” Indy Lewis as the sheltered Margaret, “My Lady Jane” actor Jason Forbes as the loyal Thane Thomas, “Royalteen’s” Ines Asserson as the eligible Judith and “Heartstone’s” Sveinn Ólafur Gunnarsson as fearsome warrior Hardrada. “King & Conqueror” is created by Michael Robert Johnson (“Sherlock Holmes”) with “Everest” director Baltasar Kormákur helming the premiere episode.
