The historical drama “Vikings: Valhalla,” created by Jeb Stuart, will conclude with its third and final season on Netflix in 2024. Serving as a sequel to the popular series “Vikings,” which ended in 2019 after six seasons, “Valhalla” picks up the story over 100 years later, introducing a new generation of legendary Viking heroes.
Set in the early 11th century, the series depicts rising tensions between the descendants of the Vikings, known as the Norse or “Danes,” and the native English, ultimately leading to bloody conflicts. The show also explores the internal struggles within the Norse community between Christian and pagan beliefs. “Vikings: Valhalla” brings to life the stories of famous Vikings, including Leif Erikson (Sam Corlett), Freydís Eiríksdóttir (Frida Gustavsson), and Harald Sigurdsson (Leo Suter), showcasing their battles and power struggles.
The first season premiered on February 25, 2022 and the upcoming final season will bring the stories of Leif, Harald, and Freydís to a conclusion.
In addition to the main cast, “Vikings: Valhalla” features a talented supporting ensemble, including Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson as Olaf Haraldsson, Caroline Henderson as Jarl Estrid Haakon, Laura Berlin as Queen Emma, and David Oakes as Earl Godwin, among others.
The series is primarily filmed in Ireland, specifically at the Ashford Studios in County Wicklow, the same location as its predecessor, “Vikings.”
