“#Vikings’ Katheryn Winnick Reveals Lagertha Was Supposed to Die Much Sooner<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

Vikings ended its final season with heartbreak and much death, but one of its stars thought her character would perish much sooner than she did.<\/p>\n

Katheryn Winnick, who played Lagertha on all six seasons, has opened up about the role in an interview with NME.<\/p>\n

The actress thought Lagertha would be written out during Vikings Season 4 because the show became more about Ragnar’s sons.<\/p>\n

“I thought I was going to go in Season 4 when the show became more about Ragnar\u2019s sons, but they convinced me to stay on with the offer of directing an episode,” Winnick shared.<\/p>\n

“I really wanted to direct, and I didn\u2019t want to be in the episode I was directing, so it was time to say goodbye. Leaving was always, always, always part of the plan.”<\/p>\n

There was an immedia<\/a>te uproar from fans upon Lagertha’s death, so we can only imagine how fans would have reacted had she been killed off during Vikings Season 4.<\/p>\n

If you watch Vikings online, you know Ragnar was killed off that same season, so it might have been a tough sell for the series<\/a>’s longtime fans to continue watching.<\/p>\n

Lagertha was fated to die at the hands of one of Ragnar’s sons, and it all played out in brutal fashion on Vikings Season 6 Episode 6.<\/p>\n

Hvitserk, who was high on drugs, hallucinated Lagertha as a huge serpent and stabbed her to death.<\/p>\n

It came after a string of episodes in which Lagertha’s death was hinted at, but the actress was not upset with it. She said the following:<\/p>\n

\n \"Katheryn<\/img>\n<\/div>\n

I wasn\u2019t upset when I was told I was getting written out. We\u2019d been talking about it for a while. If anything, I was like: \u2018When am I gonna go?!\u2019<\/em><\/p>\n

While Vikings is now over after six seasons, the franchise will continue thanks to a sequel called Vikings Valhalla, which has been picked up at Netflix.<\/p>\n

However, Winnick will not be a part of it and currently stars as P.I. Jenny Hoyt on ABC’s Big Sky.<\/p>\n

The series launched in November and has held up very well in the ratings, meaning a sophomore run is likely.<\/p>\n

What are your thoughts on Winnick potentially leaving Vikings earlier? Would that have been too much because of Ragnar’s early death?<\/p>\n

Big Sky returns to ABC in April.<\/strong><\/p>\n
