BBC, BBC American and Carnival Films have unveiled the lineup for the new Viking TV drama "The Last Kingdom".

Gabrielsson, Peter Gantzler, Joseph Millson (played alongside Matthew in Enid), Alexandre Willaume, Rune Temte and Henning Valin Jakobsen.

Dawson will play King Alfred the Great, while Dreymoon plays the main protagonist Uhtred, the son of a Saxon nobleman who is orphaned by the Vikings and brought up as one of their own and forced to choose his path.
