Netflix has released a new, final trailer for Vikings: Valhalla, the follow-up series to the popular and viciously brutal story of Norse hero Ragnar Lothbrok. The series will kick off on the streaming service on February 25, with eight one-hour episodes.
Vikings: Valhalla chronicles the bloody clash of the Vikings and the English royals as they reach a breaking point over their conflicting beliefs. As the trailer makes clear, this will be a violent, violent show that will not be sugarcoating what warfare and fighting was like over a thousand years ago. Check out the clip below to see for yourself.
Here’s the official synopsis for Vikings: Valhalla: “In the early 11th century, Vikings: Valhalla chronicles the heroic adventures of some of the most famous Vikings who ever lived–the legendary explorer Leif Erikson (Sam Corlett), his fiery and headstrong sister Freydis Eriksdotter (Frida Gustavsson), and the ambitious Nordic prince Harald Sigurdsson (Leo Suter). As tensions between the Vikings and the English royals reach a bloody breaking point and as the Vikings themselves clash over their conflicting Christian and pagan beliefs, these three Vikings begin an epic journey that will take them across oceans and through battlefields, from Kattegat to England and beyond, as they fight for survival and glory. Vikings: Valhalla, set over a hundred years after the end of the original Vikings series, is a new adventure that blends historical authenticity and drama with gritty, immersive action.”
Jeb Stuart serves as executive producer, showrunner, and writer for the series. He’s supported by fellow executive producers Morgan O’Sullivan, Michael Hirst, Sheila Hockin, Steve Stark, James Flynn, John Weber, Sherry Marsh and Alan Gasmer, and Paul Buccieri.
The spin-off will premiere on Netflix on February 25.
