Netflix has released the final trailer for Vikings: Valhalla ahead of the show’s upcoming release.
Vikings: Valhalla, which bears the tagline "Kneel to No One," takes place approximately 100 years after the History Channel’s Vikings and serves as a direct sequel to the popular show. While the original series focused on Viking Ragnar Lothbrok’s mission to conquer the west, the sequel centers on the Vikings as they clash with the English over their conflicting Christian and Pagan beliefs. The cast list also features Bradley Freegard as King Canute, Bosco Hogan as Æthelred the Unready, and Laura Berlin as Emma of Normandy.
The series was created by Jeb Stuart, the screenwriter behind Die Hard and The Fugitive, who will also serve as an executive producer, showrunner, and writer alongside Morgan O'Sullivan, Michael Hirst, Sheila Hockin, Steve Stark, James Flynn, John Weber, Sherry Marsh, and Alan Gasmer, and Paul Buccieri.
“My goal would be, at the very end, that you suddenly look back on this incredible period of time of both shows and say, ‘Wow, it was really good when they were just killing those Saxons. I miss the purity of that moment,’” describes showrunner Jeb Stuart.
All those epic action scenes, bloody fights, fur-lined garb, and sleek boats will hit Netflix on Feb. 25.
