Rob Lane has composed the score to the highly anticipated new drama series ‘The Winter King’, which is set to premiere August 20th in the US on MGM+.
The series is based on Bernard Cromwell’s popular Warlord Chronicles novels, and stars Iain De Caestecke, Eddie Marsan, Nathaniel Martello-White, Ellie James, Stuart Campell and Olumide Olorunfemi.
‘Portraying a revisionist take on the well-loved Arthurian legends, the series follows Arthur Pendragon as he evolves from outcast son to legendary warrior and leader. The Winter King is set in the 5th century, long before Britain was united, in a land of warring factions and tribes when the world was brutal and lives were often fleeting.’
Produced by Bad Wolf in association with One Big Picture and distributed by Sony Pictures Television, the ten-part series is adapted by Kate Brooke (A Discovery of Witches) and Ed Whitmore (Silent Witness), with Otto Bathurst (Peaky Blinders) as lead director.
Following it’s US release, ‘The Winter King’ will air on ITVX in the UK later this year.
