Ey up, this lad from Emmerdale is playing Norse god Heimdall in Amazon’s God of War show – that’s ‘Norse’ not up “north”

Max Parker, known for his role in Emmerdale, is set to step into the shoes of Heimdall in Amazon’s eagerly awaited adaptation of God of War. The show promises to dive deep into Norse mythology, and casting Parker as the all-seeing guardian feels like a solid move. While he might be more familiar from the Yorkshire soap, this role marks a major leap into a world of gods, giants, and epic battles. It’s a reminder that Amazon’s series is embracing the rich mythos at the heart of the game, not just borrowing a few names. With Parker on board, fans can expect a fresh but grounded take on the iconic Norse god as the story unfolds.
