Vikings Valhalla Season 3 sets sail for its last destination. Netflix’s popular historical drama series’ tight storyline, vibrant characters, and gripping narrative have left viewers speculating about Vikings Valhalla Season 4. Ever since Netflix dropped the trailer for Season 3, fans have wanted to know why is Vikings Valhalla ending.
Here is everything you want to know about Vikings: Valhalla and the possibility of a new season.
Is Vikings: Valhalla Season 3 the last and final one?
Yes, Vikings: Valhalla Season 3 will be the last and final one.
Vikings: Valhalla has over 300 million combined viewing hours during a six-month period in 2023 on Netflix, as per ScreenRant. Unlike shows that get the axe, Valhalla is ending its run on Netflix despite strong viewership. The series is expected to conclude with a satisfying finale that ties up loose ends for its beloved characters.
Why is Vikings: Valhalla ending after the Season 3 finale?
Ever since its first season aired, the show garnered positive responses and rave reviews from fans and critics. However, Vikings Valhalla Season 4 will not see the light of day and it was perhaps the plan from the beginning as stated by showrunner, Jeb Stuart.
As per The Mirror, Stuart said, “I hope when the audience gets to see the new season, they’ll be excited by all the new heights that we’ve taken these heroes.”
“When we started this project 5 years ago, I worked hard with this incredible cast and crew to craft a journey that we all hoped would be satisfying.” He added, “Of course with real historical figures, there are always more aspects of their lives that could be explored, but it made sense story-wise for our Leif, Freydis, and Harald’s voyages to end with our third season.”
Will Vikings: Valhalla be renewed for more seasons after Season 3?
No, there will be no Vikings Valhalla Season 4.
As of now, no official statement is available regarding a potential renewal for a spin-off. But as per Collider, before the release of Season 2, Stuart teased the possibility of a spin-off or a movie if given a chance.
He said, “We really talked about one, two, and three as sort of a block, and then hopefully we could get to a four, five, and six because the story is… I think you’ll see when you see Season 2 and Season 3. It’s almost like a novel. It has these wonderful time-jumps and growth in terms of particular characters.”
He further shared, “And like a really big, great novel, it’s got several under-stories that are holding things up that you don’t really feel. They’re like leitmotifs that you don’t really see, but you suddenly feel them there.”
Stuart continued, “Now, if I only got one season to go, I’ll take it one at a time and do whatever I have to do. But, these things are always better when you get to play on a large canvas. It’s better.”
Vikings Valhalla Season 3 is all set to premiere on July 11 on Netflix.
