Loved working with Nicolaj Coster Valdau @nikolajwilliamcw and create his character William the conqueror. William had many different looks through his lifetime , and even though we where not trying to be historically correct , we choose this one 🥰 Wig made by the talented wigmaker @sofialaskarwigs #nicolajcosterwaldau @rvk_studios #bbctvseries @rabbit.track.pictures
