“The Man from the North”, new film by Robert Eggers (“A Bruxa”, “O Farol”) has just been postponed in Brazil by distributor Universal Pictures.

Previously confirmed for April 22nd, the Viking epic will now be released in national cinemas on May 12th. The reasons for the change were not disclosed, but the circuit’s competitiveness during the month of April could be one of them.

However, with the new date, “The Man in the North” will premiere just a week after Marvel’s “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness”, one of the most anticipated films of the year.
