"Vikings Season 4" is taking no prisoners with its highly anticipated premiere. Among the turns that "Vikings Season 4" will take is to have Travis Fimmel's character Viking leader Ragnar Lothbrok embrace death while Kathryn Winnick's Lagertha and son Bjorn (Alexander Ludwig) embrace Ragnar's throne. However, more contenders for the throne will be making an appearance. Certainly "Vikings Season 4" will not be shy about blood and gore.
As earlier reported by Entertainment Tonight, a weakened Ragnar in "Vikings Season 4" can be heard mouthing the augry for the season. "Power, it's dangerous," Ragnar states. "This, I have always known. Look at what power has given me since I invaded Paris. I found myself thinking, 'What use this power?'"
"You see the problem with power is the more you have, the more others want it," Ragnar continues. "And in my world, power can only be truly be built... with blood. Only fools believe they can live forever by avoiding the fight. I embrace the idea of death."
Meanwhile, Inquistr reports that "Vikings Season 4" will bring in Ragnar's potential challenger King Harald Finehair, who will be played by "True Blood" actor Peter Franzén. Finnish actor Jasper Pääkkönen will also join as King Harald Finehair's brother Halfdan the Black.
TV Guide also reported on History Channel's sneak peek of Clive Standen's character Rollo's wedding night with Morgane Polanski's Princess Gisla. While Rollo tried to be the gentle husband that tried to comfort his bride, Princess Gisla kills the mood by pulling a knife on her new husband.
"Vikings Season 4" will be no slouch with keeping fans on their toes. Lagertha's words are the perfect opening to set the arena for "Vikings Season 4." "I embrace the idea of life and death for I am not the one in charge of my fate. The gods have already written my story."
