Alexander Skarsgård’s $90 Million Action Epic Flop Finds Redemption on Streaming

Director Robert Eggers redeemed himself last year with his biggest hit ever, Nosferatu. Headlined by Lily-Rose Depp, the movie also featured Bill Skarsgård as the titular character, and made $180 million worldwide. Eggers was coming off of his biggest box office flop, the action epic The Northman, which was headlined by his Nosferatu star’s brother, Alexander Skarsgård. Even though the movie didn’t recover its budget during its theatrical run, it has established itself as a particularly successful title on home video. The Northmanrecently witnessed another spike in interest on Netflix, where it debuted recently.
