Biography & career

About Kris Holden-Ried

Kris Holden-Ried plays Eyvind in Vikings. His television work includes William Compton in The Tudors, Dyson in Lost Girl, Coop in The Expanse and Axel in The Umbrella Academy. In film, he plays Quint Lane in Underworld: Awakening. The range is particularly useful for viewers interested in performers who move between historical drama and speculative genres.

Lost Girl is the strongest first stop for an extended role. The Tudors keeps the period-drama connection, while The Umbrella Academy and The Expanse provide different kinds of genre ensembles. None depends on knowing Eyvind’s Iceland storyline, making them easy independent starting points.
