Devotees of Wagner’s Ring and the Fritz Lang Siegfried silent film (not to mention all those Lord of the Rings fanboys) will find at least something to enjoy in the miniseries The Dark Kingdom, beginning tonight on The SciFi Network.

Now, La Cieca admits that the bio for the guy who plays Siegfried begins less than promisingly:

German-born actor Benno Fürmann landed his first lead role in Bernd Schadewald‘s Schuld war nur der Bossa Nova (Blame It on the Bossa Nova)

But, on the other hand, where else are you going to get the luxurious casting of Max von Sydow as Mime?
