After a gripping Season 2, fans have become interested in whether Vikings: Valhalla Season 3 will be the last. The previous season ended with an intense battle between Olaf and Freydis, and Mariam’s arc sees a tragic end after guiding the crew to Constantinople.
The series is heading to Season 3 this year. Following this, netizens want to know whether Vikings: Valhalla will end after this particular season. So, here are all the details.
Will Vikings: Valhalla Season 3 be the last one?
Yes, Vikings: Valhalla Season 3 will serve as the final chapter of the hit series, set to release on July 11. In a conversation with Netflix, showrunner Jeb Stuart reflected on his five-year-long journey of creating this show alongside cast and crew members. He is aware that there are more character stories to explore. However, storywise, it made sense to him to conclude their arcs at this time.
He explains, “Of course, with real historical figures, there are always more aspects of their lives that could be explored, but it made sense storywise for our Leif, Freydís, and Harald’s voyages to end with our third season.” He adds that he is excited for the fans to see what’s in store for them in the upcoming season.
The Season 3 trailer is already out, giving fans a sneak peek at titular heroes’ stories and what the audience can expect. Season 3 takes place seven years ago from the last season. Leif and Harald are located in Constantinople, having achieved glory. Meanwhile, Freydis accepts leadership in Jomsborg. However, bigger challenges await the titular heroes to overcome and reach their respective fates.
Why is Vikings: Valhalla ending with Season 3?
Vikings: Valhalla will conclude with Season 3, as it appears that the show was pre-planned to have only three seasons with limited storylines.
Vikings: Valhalla is a successful Netflix series whose last season garnered over 2 million hours of viewership (via ScreenRant). Typically, the streaming brand decides to cancel shows based on numerous factors. However, this particular series is bidding adieu to the service on its own terms. Despite its massive success, the show will end after Season 3 by bringing beloved character stories to a close.
