The Winter King, which premiered last Sunday on MGM+ to overwhelmingly positive reviews, has found a home in Germany.
German Telekom’s Magenta TV will show the episodes in early 2024. While no exact release date has been given so far, speculation points to January 2024.
„The Winter King“ basiert auf der „Warlord Chronicles“-Serie von Bernard Cornwell (The Last Kingdom), das als Mischung aus historischer Fiktion und Legende beschrieben wird. „The Winter King“ spielt im fünften Jahrhundert, lange Zeit bevor Großbritannien vereinigt wurde, einem brutalen Land, das aus verschiedenen Fraktionen und Stämmen bestand. Im Zentrum geht es um Arthur Pendragon, der sich vom Außenseiter zum legendären Krieger und Anführer entwickelt.

ETA (21 November 2023):
TV Wunschliste reported today that the episodes will be available on MagentaTV in Germany on 01 January 2024. What a way to start the new year!
Andrew Gower plays Sansum the Priest in this adaption of Bernard Cornwell‘s Warlord Chronicles, “a bold and revisionist take on well-loved Arthurian legends”. The series stars Iain De Caestecker as Arthur Pendragon, alongside Eddie Marsan as his father High King Uther, Valene Kane as Arthur’s sister Morgan and Jordan Alexandra as the later Queen Guinevere. Nathaniel Martello-White as Merlin, Stuart Campbell as Derfel, Ellie James as Nimue, Daniel Ings as Owain and Simon Merrells as Gundleus complete the main cast.
