(Deposed) Queen Lagertha of Kattegat has certainly seen her fair share of hardships across the 5 seasons of HISTORY's Vikings She's born children, lost a daughter, fought, lost and won wars, avenged herself against an abuser, removed a usurper, and forged unlikely alliances across multiple continents She's buried (or burned, as the case may be) all[...]

King Alfred (son of Athelstan and Queen Judith if you've forgotten) mounts an assault against King Harald Fairhair, with the help of Lagertha, Bjorn, Ubbe, Torvi, Bishop Heahmund, and their warriors who escaped Ivar's horde in Kattegat. Watching Lagertha's relationship with Heahmund during this season has been interesting, actor Jonathan Rhys Meyers is always fascinating to watch,[...]

Hopefully by now you're aware that HISTORY's Vikings returns this week for the beginning of the second half of season 5 (called season 5b). What we have here is a sneak peek of the premiere episode where defeated Queen Lagertha (Katheryn Winnick) is confronted with the knowledge that Ivar (Alex Høgh Andersen) is coming to Kattegat to[...]

28 | History (https://youtu.be/SLOa9s1q_Ug) We still don't know what Winnick's character Lagertha saw during the epic battle at the end of season 5a that caused her hair to turn stark white, though She's also still romantically involved with Jonathan Rhys Meyers character, Bishop Heahmund. https://youtu.be/q-R35nWF87UVideo can't be loaded because JavaScript is disabled: Vikings: Lagertha Questions Bishop Heahmund's[...]

Usually led by a Ragnar or a Lagertha, there have been representations of almost every main character throughout the annual Raid of Vikings. Hopes are still high that at some point, members of the cast of the series (and maybe even series creator and sole writer Michael Hirst) will eventually be guests. Here is a gallery of this[...]

Fans of HISTORY's Vikings have been in a panic since the mid season break of season 5, especially when it comes to the future of fan-favorite character Queen Lagertha, played by Katheryn Winnick.

HISTORY's original drama series Vikings has been one of our favorites since it first hit the airwaves.  The show just hit its halfway point of season 5, with a hiatus until the back half 10 episodes of the season air in the fall.

And Lagertha starts to break One of our big characters starts to break in this sequence. Sure, a lot of HBO faithful will take issue with that statement, but in context, Hirst is mostly correct So many of the core of the GoT characters don't deal with their personal issues until it's turned into (literally) a[...]

Fans of History's Vikings have been celebrating the return of the show all week, and the network knows it. Aside from a special airing ahead of the premiere where Ivar the Boneless asks the Seer to tell him the saga of Lagertha, there is also a facebook live event with the cast going on RIGHT NOW. Check[...]

It was evening up the playing field to introduce someone who was as formidable as anyone on the Vikings side. When asked about the lifespan of characters like Floki and Lagertha (who in show terms are now in their late 40s early 50s respectively), Hirst commented that he always roots for Lagertha, and wants to see[...]

Bjorn Ironside (Alexander Ludwig) as the eldest of the Lothbrok sons led his brothers in the raid. Ragnar's many sons vowed to avenge their father, and laid siege to the kingdom of Wessex and King Ecbert (Linus Roache) in the process. Lagertha (Katheryn Winnick) had once again reclaimed (and defended) Kattegat with her female honor guard of[...]
