Netflix is set to end its historical drama “The Last Kingdom” with the currently in production fifth season of the series to be its last.
Carnival Films produces this adaptation of Bernard Cornwell’s best-selling “The Saxon Stories” novels which started life on the BBC six years ago before becoming a Netflix hit.
Filming is underway in Hungary on the final ten-episode season, based on the ninth and tenth books in Cornwell’s thirteen-part series.
The story will continue to follow Uhtred of Bebbanburg (Alexander Dreymon), a warrior born a Saxon but raised as a Dane, in ninth and tenth-century England.
