The series has been one of the longest-running Canadian tv shows. From its emergence in 2013 to now, it has built a big fanbase in the world. More than 89 episodes have been telecasted on television. Several fans of the series experienced that the drama wasn’t appealing after Ragnar passed away. However, the show wasn’t called off after the downfall of viewers’ interest in it.

In fact series creator Michael Hirst has mentioned that taking the storyline till Vikings season 6 was an innovative idea. While conversating to Variety in 2019, Hirst mentioned, “I always knew where I wanted the show to go and more or less where it would end if I was given the opportunity. What I was trying to do was write the saga of Ragnar Lothbrok and his sons. After six seasons and 89 episodes, that’s what I felt — finally — I’d done. We stopped shooting the final episode in November last year and I felt that I’d said all I needed to say about Ragnar and his sons. I told my saga.”

However, creators have given a big exciting surprise to the fans of the show. A spin-off version of the drama namely Vikings: Valhalla is on the cards. The show is in the initial stages of development and Netflix has acquired its streaming rights. It will show events from 100 years after the incidents of Vikings and will deliver insights into other popular faces of the sagas including Erik the Red and Harald Hardrada.

Netflix has previously shown a concept similar to Vikings in its popular series The Last Kingdom that highlights the dominance of Alfred The Great and its multiple characters are similar to Vikings. The fifth season of The Last Kingdom can be launched by the end of 2021 and it’s seeming that the craze of this series has played a crucial role for the network to go for Vikings: Valhalla. 

The shooting of Vikings: Valhalla started in summer 2020 at Ashford Studios in Ireland but as some of the crew members of the drama tested positive for COVID-19 the filming of the show was temporarily called off. However, it didn’t take too long for showrunners to again resume the filming. The reports of trusted sources like Screenrant suggest that Vikings: Valhalla will be released on Netflix by the end of 2021.
