Stories and films about Royalty can be slow even a little mundane, predictable in tone and pace. In sweeping Danish historical thriller/Drama Margrete: Queen of the North things look to be different. If anything epic in nature and today Signature Entertainment release the UK Trailer.
Directed by Charlotte Sieling (Borgen, The Bridge) and starring Trine Dyrholm (Love Is All You Need, In A Better World, A Royal Affair). Dyrholm plays the titular character Queen Margete who ruled Denmark, Norway and Sweden in peace with her adopted son Erik, however she finds herself now in a dilemma that can shatter that union.
After a solid festival run and a release Stateside, the film has been picking up very strong reviews. A very intense, sharing a bit of tone similar to The Game Of Thrones. If true, even a part of tone we might have a very good film on the cards!
