We reported in September of 2013 that Amon Amarth's frontman Johan Hegg was to be an actor in the upcoming Northmen – A Viking Saga film, starring as a viking named Valli. Essentially the only reason we knew was because he was listed on IMDb as a part of the film. So what does Hegg look like as a viking on the big screen and not just a viking on stage? Well…
If you told me this was just a promo shot for some publicity stuff for Amon Amarth I wouldn't have even questioned you. He looks so damn natural in full-on viking regalia! There's no release date for the movie yet.
Amon Amarth are currently on the road with Enslaved and Skeletonwitch. Dates here. The bands recently had some free time and took in a hockey game wearing epic Amon Amarth jerseys.
