Prime Video's 'Bloodaxe' Confirms January 2027 Premiere and Unveils Trailer at NYCC
Prime Video has set a January 20, 2027, premiere date for its new historical drama 'Bloodaxe' and released a new teaser trailer during a panel at New York Comic Con. The series, created by Michael Hirst and his son Horatio Hirst, stars Xavier Molyneux as the 10th-century Norse raider Erik Bloodaxe and Jessica Madsen as his wife, Gunnhild. The eight-episode first season is produced by MGM Television and has already been renewed for a second season, which is currently filming in Ireland. While the show shares a creator with Hirst's previous 'Vikings' series, it is not narratively connected to those productions.
