Vikings: Valhalla Season 3 picks up seven years after the events of Season 2 and sees the main protagonists where we last left them but much more established. Freydis is still in Jomsborg, which is now flourishing under her rule, while halfway around the world is Leif, who still mourns Mariam (Hayat Kamille) and, at the same time, figuring out what he’ll do next, not wanting to serve in Emperor Romanos’s (Nikolai Kinski) army forever. On the other hand, Harald, whose ambition of being King of Norway seems to have taken a back seat, gets into a challenge with his closest military partner, General Maniakis (Florian Monteanu), and continues to desire Empress Zoe (Sofya Lebedeva). As for King Canute, the ruler of Denmark, Norway, and England, he begins pondering about the future of his throne and considers which of his and Queen Emma’s sons would be suitable.

All seasons of Vikings: Valhalla are currently streaming on Netflix.
