History Announces Additional Casting For Season 3 Of Vikings

History announced today new casting for season three of its hit scripted series “Vikings,” including Canadians Lothaire Bluteau (“The Tudors”) as Emperor Charles of France, a powerful man who views battling the Vikings as spiritual and earthly, and Kevin Durand (“The Strain”) as The Wanderer, a mysterious man who is not what he seems.

Also debuting in season three is Morgane Polanski (“The Ghost”) as Princess Gisla, the elegant, self-possessed daughter of Emperor Charles and his most trusted advisor, as well as the previously announced Ben Robson (“Dracula: The Dark Prince”) who plays Kalf, Lagertha’s trusted second in command.

Travis Fimmel (“Warcraft”) leads the stellar cast as Ragnar, along with Canadian Katheryn Winnick as Lagertha, an Earl and fierce shield maiden; Clive Standen as Rollo, Ragnar’s impulsive brother; Canadian Alexander Ludwig as Bjorn, the bold warrior son of Ragnar; George Blagden as Athelstan, a young and not-so-innocent monk; Canadian Jessalyn Gilsig as Siggy, beautiful wife of the late Earl Haraldson; Linus Roache as Ecbert, King of Wessex, a man of undisguised ambition; Gustaf Skarsgard as Floki, a ship builder and Alyssa Sutherland as Princess Aslaug, Ragnar’s new wife.

“Vikings” centers on Ragnar Lothbrok, a restless warrior and family man who longs to find and conquer new lands across the seas and claim the spoils as his own. The series portrays life in the Dark Ages, a world ruled by raiders and explorers, through the eyes of Viking society.
