<h2>Vikings: Valhalla - Cast, Trailer, Synopsis, Release Date</h2><em>Vikings: Valhalla</em> is an English historic drama series created by Jeb Stuart. The series is a sequel to History TV's <em>Vikings.</em> The show follows Leif Erikson, Freydis Eriksdotter, and Harald Hardrada, who belong to the two conflicting groups: the Christians and the Pagans. Therefore, the series brings to life the story of the end of the glorious Viking age. It will also cover the fabled battle of Stamford Bridge.<p>The series is set about 100 years after the events of History TV's Vikings. Thus, one may not find striking similarities between the shows. However, this series takes the story further. That said, you will definitely find some references to the original show.</p><h2>Vikings Valhalla on Netflix</h2><em>Vikings: Valhalla</em> takes forward the story that began with History TV's phenomenal period drama. It is not always that you see a network making a sequel to another network's show. But we know Netflix does things differently; Lucifer is a great example of this. After Lucifer was cancelled, the streaming giant picked it up and commissioned further seasons due to fan demands.<p>Likewise, Netflix going forward with this project proves the potential of the series and the love it has among the fans. At present, we know that the streaming giant ordered 24 episodes. Thus, show creators have planned 3 seasons to be down these episodes.</p><p>Netflix released the first season of the series on February 25, 2022.</p><p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-20415" src="https://netflixjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/vikings-valhalla-freydis.jpg.webp" alt="" width="1284" height="856" /></p><p>As per <a href="https://thecinemaholic.com/vikings-valhalla-season-2-renewed-or-cancelled/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the reports</a>, <em>Vikings: Valhalla</em> Season 2 production was already completed in November 2021.
