Welcome to the Legion!

vikings-season-4

History has released this short “early look” video to get fans excited for Season 4 of Vikings.

Vikings was created by Michael Hirst (Elizabeth, The Tudors) and stars Travis Fimmel (who stars in the upcoming film, Warcraft). The series “is a family saga that tells the remarkable tales of the lives and epic adventures of the raiders and explorers of the Dark Ages.”

Here is what the official press release had to say about Vikings:

Season three culminated with the extraordinary battle in Paris, where Ragnar (Fimmel) seized victory from the jaws of defeat – but still returns to Kattegat dangerously ill. Thoughts of his death galvanize the forces who seek to succeed him as king, including his wife Queen Aslaug (Alyssa Sutherland) and his oldest son, Bjorn (Alexander Ludwig). Meanwhile, Lagertha (Katheryn Winnick) continues power struggles with her calculating, former second in command, Kalf (Ben Robson); Rollo (Clive Standen) betrays his Vikings heritage by remaining in Frankia and Floki (Gustaf Skarsgård) is seized for his brutal actions to the Christian priest Athelstan.

Joining the stellar cast this season is Peter Franzén (The Gunman) as “King Harold Finehair,” a complex character who seeks to be King of Norway and a potential threat to Ragnar; Jasper Pääkkönen (Jet Trash) as “Halfdan The Black,” King Harold’s violent younger brother; and Dianne Doan (“Descendants”) as “Yidu,” a completely different character within the world of the Vikings who fascinates Ragnar.

Season 4 of Vikings premieres on History on Thursday, February 18th at 10 p.m. ET.
