Some of this year’s most prominent films, including a medieval comedy from Lena Dunham, are coming to Prime Video this October.
On October 22nd, Robert Eggers’ historical epic thriller film The Northman hits Prime Video. Based on the legend of Amleth, the story follows a Viking prince who heads on a quest to avenge the murder of his father.
With an impressive ensemble cast featuring Alexander Skarsgård, Nicole Kidman, Anya Taylor-Joy, Willem Dafoe, and even Björk, there’s a reason The Northman has finally found commercial success in home media following an underwhelming box office performance.
It spawned thousands of comical internet memes, so October 29th may be the day to catch Morbius on Prime Video to see what all the fuss was about.
The third film in Sony’s Spider-Man Universe featured ludicrously loud performances from Jared Leto and Matt Smith as the titular character and his surrogate brother Milo respectively, who both become living vampires after curing themselves of a rare blood disease.
After several attempts to bring Morbius to the big screen over two decades, the reviews weren’t exactly worth the wait, although Smith – currently impressing in House of the Dragon – earned some praise for his committed performance.
10 years after Girls premiered, Lena Dunham has brought her idiosyncratic storytelling to a medieval comedy. Catherine Called Birdy, based on the classic children’s novel of the same name, arrives on Prime Video on October 7th.
