Since March 28, 2013, the Canadian-Irish television series Vikings has invaded the screens. Fans have enjoyed themselves throughout the 5 seasons that have taken them through the adventures of a great Viking warrior Ragnar Lothbrok and his family, through the fall of their kingdom and the advent of a new era. The sixth and final season of this show is scheduled for 2019-2020 and still promises many surprises.
A landmark season 6
This fifth season is the climax of Vikings. The 20 episodes will mark a major turning point in the destinies of the main characters and will offer viewers a finale worthy of the name.
According to series creator and writer Michael Hirst, this final season will be more ambitious than any that have come before it. Executive producer Morgan O’Sullivan said that season 6 will be “a satisfying conclusion for fans who have followed this incredible story from the beginning.
The main characters
One of the strong assets of the series is undoubtedly its impressive cast. We will find in this final season Ragnar Lothbrok (Travis Fimmel), the offspring of this great Viking warrior: Bjorn Ironside (Alexander Ludwig), Ivar The Boneless (Alex Hogh Andersen) and the other members of the Lothbrock family as Ubbe (Jordan Patrick Smith), Hvitserk (Marco Ilso) or Torvi (Georgia Hirst)
Bjorn will have to face several obstacles while Ivar is shown more fragile than usual. In addition, many characters appear for the first time, including White Hair (Kieran O’Reilly).
Strong themes
Season 6 takes us back into the violent world of the Vikings and their famous battles. It will address many strong themes such as: honor, love, sacrifice, betrayal and revenge. But it will also emphasize the importance of emotional bonds, honor and respect that can arise between adversaries.
Thus, it will be the sacred union between Scandinavians and Franks that will mark the beginning of the long road towards the Christianization of Scandinavia and Europe.
A hopeful ending?
The show Vikings is known for its tragic and poignant endings. But season 6 should offer us a more optimistic ending. According to Travis Fimmel, the actor playing Ragnar Lothbrok: “there will be ups and downs for many of the characters but this will be the best way for them to fulfill their destiny and find peace”.
So it seems that the main characters can find their salvation and emancipation despite the difficulties encountered throughout their journey. An unlikely happy ending that will certainly delight the fans who are impatiently waiting for the last season of Vikings.
Vikings, the series that will go down in history
While waiting for the release of the sixth season, the show Vikings continues to conquer the public. With its epic battles and complex political intrigues, this TV series has been able to gather millions of viewers around the world.
With such success, it’s no wonder that the series is known for its quality. And if the end of the series meant a painful passage for fans, the release of season 6 also promises some nice surprises.
This sixth season will bring a fitting end to an exceptional work that has captivated viewers for years. Whatever the case, the characters of Vikings will remain forever anchored in history.
