On 11 July 2024, just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, Netflix has loosed the sails for the third and final season of Vikings: Valhalla. And fans can expect a bloody finale when the 10-episode season ends on 19 September 2024. A Deadline article has teased the exciting finale by analysing the reveal trailer and giving fans a glimpse into the epic trajectory of this bloody and enthralling saga. We take a microscopic look at the heart of the journey.

THE FINAL CHAPTER UNFOLDS

The Journey Reaches Its Apex

From History: A sequel series featuring three of the most renowned Vikings: Leif Eriksson, Freydís Eiríksdóttir and Harald Sigurdsson. The endgame begins. Valhalla, the magnificent sequel to the critically acclaimed series ‘Vikings’, is coming soon to Prime Video in 2022.

Seven Years On: Where We Find Our Heroes

Season 3 takes place seven years since the tumult of season 2, and Freydís is in danger: the head of pagan Jomsborg, with her life on a knife edge. Harald and Leif Eriksson have made their names in Constantinople and are poised to begin the quest to find a new home. Word of great lands and of victory is flanked on both sides by death, for who else but a Viking would stand and face it with sword clutched in hand?

INTRODUCING THE VALIANT AND THE VILLAINOUS

This is an ensemble cast, with some old and familiar heroes, and some new faces. There’s a lot of talent here, and we see that some of them are going to really come to play in the ending, letting us get to know them like we did with the others: Laura Berlin, David Oakes and Bradley Freegard returning; Florian Munteanu and Goran Visnjic also in terrifically promising roles. Who’ll know who and what, and how, in the end?

THE CREATOR'S VISION COMES FULL CIRCLE

Jeb Stuart, co-creator and executive producer of Vikings: Valhalla, comments on the path of going from raw, historical information into fully fleshed-out productions: ‘The big statement we make that is inherent in the arc of the series is that we intend to show these people [Leif Eriksson, Harald Sigurdsson, Freydís Eiríksdóttir] how they became the mythical figures we know and revere today.’ Jeb Stuart speaks to the power of a committed storyteller. Vikings: Valhalla airs exclusively on Netflix from 25 February 2022.

LOOKING BACK ON THE JOURNEY

Charting the Course Through Seasons

The tour through time, the hardship, the loyalty, the leadership, the legacy, those who survive and those who fall … Vikings: Valhalla has led us through it all. But it’s not too late to hop onboard to catch up with the story or a quick rewatch of the first two seasons of the Netflix series just before the final season delivers its conclusion.

Navigating the Final Voyage

And as we near the date, 11 July 2024 – the final curtain – we can look back on the success of Vikings: Valhalla today, as a testament of the eternal appeal of stories of the human will, of power, perseverance and the unyielding desire to push back the map’s edges.

EXPLORING THE ESSENCE OF JOURNEY IN VIKINGS: VALHALLA

Journey, as the series ‘Vikings: Valhalla’ uses it, encompasses more than just geographic and chronological trekking across the seas to faraway lands, or pushing to advance through space and time. It means the making of characters, their reshaping, their ongoing processes. Just as the play of journey within the series enriches a tapestry of actual words and images, the idea of journey, literal and metaphoric, likewise invites us to think about where we have been, where we are and where we might be going, and what we will have wrought there.

CONCLUSION

The circle of ‘Vikings: Valhalla’, coming full turn, will end with its third season as history will remember them, the last and greatest voyage. Netflix is ready to tell this final story with the world. The path Leif Eriksson, Freydís and Harald Sigurdsson take continues to burn brightly with the same desire that pulsates in all of us – to find honour, glory and a home of our own.
