Lagertha will seize every opportunity to make a political play for Kattegat, which has become fill of unrest with Ragnar's advanced age. This will also provide her with perfect opportunity to exact revenge on Aslaug, who destroyed her beloved family long time ago.

As cited by at Coming Soon, series creator and writer Michael Hirst teases on the magnitude of the second half of season 4. According to him, "This season is monumental and unlike anything we've ever done."

"We've propelled 'Vikings' to the topmost level of historical drama as we follow storylines inspired by real life events such as Bjorn Ironside sailing through the Mediterranean and Ivar the Boneless becoming the most feared warrior of all time. It's not a story of one man, but a saga of Ragnar and his sons," he added.

In addition, the season 5 of "Vikings" is currently in production in Ireland and Golden Globe Award winner Jonathan Rhys Myers (The Tudors) joins the cast. Moreover, Adam Copeland is set to play the role of Ketill Flatnose, a fierce and brave warrior chosen by Floki to be one of the leaders of the Viking party.
