EXCLUSIVE: James Norton and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau‘s King & Conqueror will play on Prime Video in the U.S. and HBO Max in a slew of territories after Paramount Global sealed a raft of deals for the soon-to-launch historical epic.

The drama stars Norton as Harold, Earl of Wessex, opposite Coster-Waldau as William, Duke of Normandy, two men destined to clash at the Battle of Hastings. Emily Beecham plays Edith Swan-neck and Clémence Poésy stars as Matilda, their respective wives. The drama tells the story of the people, dynasties and events that went on to shape history.

The series is produced by Rabbit Track Pictures, the label that Norton runs with Kitty Kaletsky, alongside The Development Partnership, Shepherd Content, RVK Studios and CBS Studios, in association with the BBC, which has the UK rights and launches the show later this month. The first trailer dropped last week.

Paramount Global Content Distribution is across sales and has racked up deals spanning over 100 territories. Prime Video has taken it for the U.S. and HBO Max will show the 1066 drama in the Nordics, Iberia, Southeast Asia, the Netherlands, Hong Kong, and Taiwan.

PGCD held a packed buyers-only screening for King & Conqueror – the opening episode of which is directed by Baltasar Kormákur – at the London Screenings in February.

It clearly struck a chord with the assembled acquisitions folk. SBS has acquired it for Australia and JioHotstar for India. It has also sold to buyers including Showcase and StackTV (Canada), M-Net (Africa), Streamz and Be TV (Belgium), Cosmote TV (Greece), Yes and Hot (Israel), Sky NZ (New Zealand), and LRT (Lithuania).

The deals come ahead of a glitzy London premiere for the series, next week.

“King & Conqueror is a sweeping, cinematic drama with global appeal, and we’re thrilled to see such strong demand from leading platforms around the world,” says Lisa Kramer, President of International Content Licensing at PGCD. “Compelling storytelling, exceptional cast, and bold creative vision make it a standout series that resonates across markets and cultures.”
