Björk will play The Slav Witch in Robert Eggers’ Viking drama The Northman.
The film is gradually being pieced together, with director Robert Eggers – The Witch, The Lighthouse – turning his attention to the Vikings.
The sweeping, and no doubt bloody, historical epic has already grabbed such stars as Willem Dafoe and Anya Taylor-Joy, with Alexander Skarsgård and Nicole Kidman joining the cast.
In an intriguing move Björk has joined the film, set to play a character called The Slav Witch.
The Icelandic artist has a rich acting pedigree, but she hasn’t appeared in a major film production since 2000’s Dancer In The Dark.
No word yet on a release date.
