That’s not a viking. lmaoNot only is she a Viking circa 900-1000 AD according to Netflix but she's a Viking leader!
The woman in the photo is the character of Jarl Estrid Haakon who rules over the fictional Viking city of Kattegat and is based on the actual historical character of Haakon Ericsson, a white male who served as the Governor of Norway under Canute the Great from 1012 to 1015.
But Netflix said we need a black queen for the role.

My family name is Irish. My tag line is our family motto in ancient Gaelic, We are Victorious. Our ancient forebear was Hrothrekor, a redheaded Viking circa 800AD. There’s also Scots, English, Norman, and the most dominant strain Cherokee.
Am I white? Possibly. A breed, definitely. I believe the past is prologue, I believe in the future, I live in the now. People’s labels for me reflect their minds not my thoughts or actions.

And even back in the '80s they tried a black version of "The Odd Couple" with Ron Glass and Demond Wilson, who couldn't act his way out of a wet paper bag.
That said, there were "black" shows that weren't reboots of white shows that were good in their own right. Sanford and Son, Good Times and the Jeffersons were hits (yes, two were spin-offs of other shows, but they had their own story-lines).
Even lesser known shows like Grady and "That's My Mama" were watchable. Plus in-between shows like "Julia" and "What's Happening!" that weren't world-beaters but did what they set out to do. (Dihann Carroll was one classy lady, and a solid actress).
Plus there is the old custom of being able to make ethnic jokes if you are that ethnicity. Jackie Mason cracked great Jewish jokes, and "In Living Color" had fun with black ethnic jokes (I loved the "Hey Mon" skits).

Now have to see the movie to help it make money.
I’m sick of cultural appropriation of Western Culture by those lacking in any sense of history.
Putting in diverse or females in male’s roles indicates the writers have no imagination and zero appreciation for the legitimate stories of other cultures.
To: Morgana
The trailers look pretty cool.

Hopefully it means there won’t be obese Dindu women in the back of the theatre talking Dinduese for 2 hours like we had for The Batman.

We are all bound by our roots. If we forget them, we forget what it took to get us here. We forget the struggle, the lessons learned, the bravery, the cowardice... We forget the good, the bad, and that which should bind us together.
The movie looks good from the trailers. I guess we’ll see...

For sure I will see The Northman. I am a dupe and a sucker for Vikings movies and the Vikings TV series that had 6 seasons. Which is free these days at Amazon Prime. Amazon must be full of White Supremacists.
