"Season three culminated with the extraordinary battle in Paris, where Ragnar seized victory from the jaws of defeat - but still returns to Kattegat dangerously ill. Thoughts of his death galvanize the forces who seek to succeed him as king, including his wife Queen Aslaug (Alyssa Sutherland) and his oldest son, Bjorn (Alexander Ludwig)," the History Chanel teased.
Lagertha (Katheryn Winnick), meanwhile will have to deal with Kalf (Ben Robson) while Floki (Gustaf Skarsgård) pays dearly for the murder of Athelstan. Back in France, Rollo (Clive Standen) will attempt to make a new life.
