Alexander Skarsgård’s character in HBO’s True Blood is a Viking prince turned vampire on a mission to avenge his family. In Robert Eggers’ The Northman, Skarsgård’s Amleth is also a Viking Prince who witnesses his uncle (Claes Bang) murder his father, the King (Ethan Hawke) and then vows to avenge his death. The similarities are eerie, and they are actually purposeful, Skarsgård has revealed.
It’s in season 3 of True Blood that the show finally features a flashback episode about Eric’s past as a human. In Sweden, young Eric is left orphaned when a pack of werewolves attacks and kills his family. Hundreds of years later, and now a vampire himself, Eric discovers the creature responsible for the bloody murder was vampire Russell Edgington.
