'Vikings: Valhalla' Ending at Netflix

'Vikings Valhalla' Season 3 will premiere on Netflix in 2024.

The Vikings saga is coming to an end. Nearly two years after it premiered as a spinoff of History's Vikings, the prequel series Vikings: Valhalla is set to end with Season 3 on Netflix in 2024, co-creator and executive producer Jeb Stuart confirmed in a statement to IGN.

"I am so grateful to have had three seasons to tell the stories of Leif, Harald and Freydis. I knew from the beginning that I wanted to show the evolution of how three of the most famous Vikings became the icons we know today and we have done just that," 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."

Stuart continued: "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. And we really cannot wait for the fans to see the conclusion of this chapter of history."

Debuting in 2022, two years after the History flagship series concluded its six-season run, Valhalla is set in the early 11th century, more than 100 years after the original Vikings show. It chronicles the legendary tales of famous Vikings in history, including explorer Leif Eriksson, his sister Freydis Eriksdotter, and Nordic prince Harald Sigurdsson. The series is set amid a backdrop of rising tensions between the Vikings and the English royals.
