"Vikings" Season 5 has already been scheduled to air in 2017 and fans are starting to wonder if all the rumors about the show have a basis. Previous reports suggested that the main protagonist of the series, Ragnar Lathbrok, will die even before the fifth run starts. Rumors are also rife that Lagertha, who is one of the well-loved characters in the show, will also meet her end during "Vikings" Season 5.
However, new reports have emerged suggesting that the character of Katheryn Winnick will stay for another season. Nonetheless, no solid details have surfaced with regard to the fate of Ragnar, who is played by Travis Fimmel. Fans are certainly hoping that both Lagertha and Ragnar will continue to be the focus of "Vikings" Season 5 once it airs next year.
Despite all the rumors about Ragnar's death, all doubts about his presence next season should be cleared by now as the production company has already confirmed "Vikings" Season 5. Many fans believe that the show is never going to be the same without everyone's favorite character.
In a report by Game N Guide, if rumors prove to be true, Ragnar's death would mean that Lagertha will take over the throne. The publication also suggested that the upcoming "Vikings" Season 5 will be the best run of the series as it will feature a new exciting storyline filled with action and drama. The upcoming season will also include new characters as some are expected to bid goodbye before "Vikings" Season 4 ends.
Meanwhile, reports are circulating that "Vikings" Season 5 could be the last run of the TV franchise. Although this has yet to be confirmed by the network, several rumors online suggest that fans and critics have predicted the upcoming season to be the last of the series.
As of the moment, fans will have to take this report with a grain of salt until the people behind the show decide to make an official statement. Stay tuned for more news and update about "Vikings" Season 5.
