Netflix's highly anticipated historical drama "Seven Kings Must Die" has added Alexander Dreymon to its cast, who will play the lead role of Uhtred of Bebbanburg.

Based on the bestselling Bernard Cornwell novels, "Seven Kings Must Die" follows Uhtred, a young warrior born into a noble Saxon family but raised by Vikings after his family is murdered. Uhtred must navigate the treacherous world of 9th-century England, where he is torn between his loyalty to his adopted Viking family and his desire to reclaim his birthright.

Dreymon is best known for his role as the eponymous hero in the historical drama series "The Last Kingdom." His casting in "Seven Kings Must Die" has been met with excitement from fans of both the novels and the previous series.

The series is expected to premiere on Netflix in late 2023 or early 2024.
