Alexander Ludwig Joins 'Unabom' with Jacob Tremblay and Russell Crowe

Alexander Ludwig, best known for playing Bjorn Ironside on Vikings, has joined the cast of Netflix’s thriller Unabom, according to Deadline. The movie tells the story of Ted Kaczynski, the so-called Unabomber, who carried out a string of bombings across the U.S. from 1978 to 1995. Jacob Tremblay joined the cast earlier this month as Kaczynski, with Russell Crowe playing Professor Henry Murray, who subjected him to controversial psychological experiments at Harvard. Shailene Woodley plays FBI agent Joanne Miller, who hunts him down, and Steven Ogg and Marc Menchaca also co-star.

Directed by Janus Metz and written by Sam Chalsen and Nelson Greaves, the film is produced by Sophie Cassidy for 2.0 Entertainment and MRC. Ludwig, who recently appeared in Bad Boys: Ride or Die and Starz’s wrestling drama Heels, also recently wrapped shooting Marked Men, based on Jay Crownover’s book series.
