Does The Last Kingdom’s Alexander Dreymon Do All Of His Own Stunts?

Speaking (appropriately enough for a Viking brawler) with MuscleAndFitness.com, Alexander Dreymon was eager to discuss the details of day-to-day life on the set of “The Last Kingdom.” Asked if he does many of the stunts himself, the actor replied, “Oh yeah. I’ve learned so much from my stunt double Tamás Katrics.” Dreymon went on to add that since he also spends a lot of time on horseback on the series, he’s benefited in a major way from the series’ stunt coordinator, Levente Lezsák, who instructs the cast on how to handle their mounts. The actor then explained that doing his own equine stunts is something he’s well-suited to. “When I lived in South Dakota,” he said, referring to the time his family resided on a Native American reservation, “I’d jump on a horse and just ride for hours. It’s the ultimate sense of freedom.”

As an indicator of how proud he is of his blade-wielding, enemy-vanquishing work on “The Last Kingdom,” Dreymon posted this video to his Instagram feed, showcasing his character’s athletic ability to slice and dice not just a single opposing combatant but more than half-a-dozen at once. Featuring a caption that begins: “Rehearsal with my friend and stunt double @katrix.horse,” Dreymon concludes his Instagram tribute to his stunt work with his series’ colleagues, writing, “I miss you all and can’t wait to kick your a***s again soon.”
