The production originally began late last summer in Ireland but had to pause for a period of time due to COVID-19."When I went to Belfast for 'The Northman', I was pretty scared," Kidman told Variety in January.Kidman added, "People were saying, 'Oh my God, if you go, you're going to get COVID.' So I was really frightened, but at the same time, I had this sense of duty and I had this sense of 'this is what I do.' I'm a creative being who shows up and I put on as much protection as I could and so I did the production and we were all safe and I went, 'OK, let's go.'"'The Northman' serves as a follow up to 2019's 'The Lighthouse', which starred Dafoe and Robert Pattinson and earned an Academy Award nomination for best cinematography.In addition to Dafoe, 'The Northman' reunited Eggers and Taylor-Joy, who starred in his directorial feature debut, 'The Witch'. Eggers also co-wrote the screenplay with Icelandic poet and novelist Sjon.
