Exclusive: Ragnarok’s UK Trailer Promises a Scaly Apocalypse
Ancient mysteries, Viking lore, high adventure and giant snakes. What’s not to like?! As StudioCanal gears up for the February 2, 2015, UK DVD release of Ragnarok, our exclusive first look at the new UK trailer comes sporting all of these plus a dose of Spielbergian promise.
Titled Gåten Ragnarok in its native Norwegian, the film is directed by Mikkel Brænne Sandemose and stars Pål Sverre Hagen, Nicolai Cleve Broch, Bjørn Sundquist and Sofia Helin.
Synopsis:
Archaeologist Sigurd Svendsen has for years been obsessed with the Oseberg Viking ship. The only inscription found on the ship is the enigmatic “man knows little” written in runes. Sigurd is sure that the Oseberg ship contains the answer to the mystery of Ragnarok, the end of days in Norse mythology.
When his friend Allan finds similar runes on a stone from the north of Norway, Sigurd becomes convinced that the runes are in fact a treasure map. Together they mount an expedition group, and their adventure leads to “No man’s Land” between Norway and Russia, which has been deserted for decades. Here Sigurd learns the true meaning of the runes – a secret more terrifying than he could possibly imagine.
