Vikings Season 5B trailer drops as cast throw shade at Game of Thrones

Viking fans don’t have too long to wait, as Season 5B will be released later this year.

Announced at Comic Con 2018, Michael Hurst revealed that part two will debut on Wednesday, 28 November.

And to rev up the hype, the producers have dropped an action packed trailer that shows the divide between Ivar The Boneless and his brother Bjorn.

The historical saga will see the Lothbrok family’s trouble deepen as Dike Rollo (Clive Standen) returns to stir things up in Kattegat as he is still furious about the new king Ivar.

Ragnar’s sons will continue their battle to rule the world, while Viking warrior Lagertha remains hopeful she will regain her spot in Kattegat as its rightful leader.

Bjorn and Lagather will be forced to flee Ivar’s reign with Bishop Heahmund, but this doesn’t mean challenges won’t be thrown in Ivar’s way, as enemies will show their face to try and defeat the man who declared himself a God on earth.

Floki meanwhile will be facing his own battles in Iceland as he fights against the elements in order to survive.

Alexander Ludwig revealed at the event that fans can expect to see Bjorn’s darker side in the next instalment, while Katheryn Winnick teased a new appearance is on its way for her character Lagertha, as she started to grow older.

The panel were asked a number of questions from the fan base and threw shade in the direction of HBO’s Game Of Thrones.

When asked who would their characters fight out of the hit series, the cast allegedly refused to answer with Michael Hurst joking: ‘I’m sorry what show?’
