The Returning Favourites

Lagertha, the fearless and skilled shieldmaiden, has undergone significant development throughout the series, and her return is eagerly anticipated by fans. According to Winnick, "Lagertha has grown so much as a character, and I'm excited to see her continue to evolve and thrive in the new season."
Travis Fimmel, who played the iconic Ragnar Lothbrok, will also be returning to the show, although in a reduced capacity. Fimmel's departure from the show was met with sadness from fans, but it's been confirmed that he will make a few appearances in the new season, marking the final farewell to the character that started it all. "I'm excited to see how the show will continue without Ragnar, and I think the new season will be just as epic," Fimmel said in a statement.
Another familiar face set to return is Alexander Ludwig, who played Bjorn Ironside, Ragnar's son. Ludwig has been a staple of the show since Season 2 and has become an integral part of the cast. "I'm thrilled to be back on the show and can't wait to see what the new season brings," Ludwig said in an interview.
New Blood and Fresh Faces
The new season of Vikings promises to bring a fresh wave of new characters, played by some of Hollywood's hottest stars. One of the most exciting additions to the cast is Anouska Lemon, who will be playing the role of Eivor, a young Viking warrior. Lemon is a relatively new face in the industry, but she's already making waves with her stunning performance in the upcoming season.
Another newcomer to the cast is Ewan Horne, who will be playing the role of Leif Erikson, a young Viking explorer. Horne has already gained recognition for his roles in various TV shows and movies, including the BBC's Britannia. "I'm thrilled to be a part of the Vikings cast and can't wait to explore the world of these incredible characters," Horne said in an interview.
The new season will also see the return of Flokaugsht (not available at the time of writing), a Viking warrior, and Jessalyn Gilsig, who will be reprising her role as Siggy Haraldson. Both actors have been part of the show's core cast since its inception and are expected to bring more drama and intensity to the new season.
The Villains We Love to Hate
No Viking season would be complete without a dastardly villain to rival the heroes. In the new season, fans can expect to see the return of some of the show's most iconic baddies, including the ruthless and cunning Edward the Confessor, played by Jefferson Hall. Hall has been a masterclass in playing the villain, and his return is eagerly anticipated by fans.
Another despicable character set to return is King Harald Finehair, played by Peter Franzén. Harald has been a thorn in the side of the Viking heroes for seasons, and his continued presence will undoubtedly bring more conflict and drama to the new season.
