    Meet Craig, ‘Vikings’ Boom Operator [Who May Or May Not Be Alexander Ludwig]

    Mary Anne ButlerBy No Comments


    Imagine if you will, the chance to film a promo for your favorite tv series in full costume- in this case, HISTORY’s Vikings. Aside from the awesomeness of a super-fan getting the chance to film said promo, it was an auspicious occasion; Craig the boom mic operator’s first day on the job.

    Meet Craig, 'Vikings' Boom Operator [Who May Or May Not Be Alexander Ludwig]

    Perhaps you’ll notice that Craig (a VERY TALL gentleman) looks an awful lot like Vikings star Alexander Ludwig, who plays eldest son of Ragnar Lothbrok, Björn Ironside.

    Kudos to the unnamed fan’s patience, and to the crew for keeping the secret long enough for the payout when Ludwig revealed himself.

    Vikings returns to HISTORY for season 5b (the back half of the season) NEXT WEEK, on November 28th.
