All Hail King Bjorn!
“Vikings” returns this week Dec. 4, 2019, for its final season. Will Bjorn Ironside be able to rule Kattegat with the peace that he has promised? Will Lagertha be able to leave the fighting and the pain behind to find the life that she has wanted for so long now? It won’t be easy for Ragnar’s firstborn as his enemies are knocking at the gates.
History Channel tells us what we can look forward to:
After years of turmoil and tragedy, the series reaches its biggest climax yet with the Vikings traveling to never-before-seen locations thousands of miles from Kattegat, meeting vicious rivals worthy of their strategic combat and finally facing the consequences of Ragnar’s death. The Seer’s visions come to fruition as the final season answers important life-altering questions while making it clear, the war is far from over.
Katheryn Winnick (Lagertha) will be making her directorial debut.
Fans can rejoice that there will be 20 episodes this season. It will air in two parts as usual. The first eight episodes will get a jump start with a two-hour premiere on Dec. 4th. The rest of the season will air sometime in 2020.
Binge season five to get caught up before Wednesday!
