'Vikings' Season 4 Midseason Air Date, News & Update: Travis Fimmel's Ragnar Lothbrok To Discover Ivar The Boneless A Sly Enemy In S4?

The "Vikings Season 4" midseason premiere will challenge "Warcraft" star Travis Fimmel as Ragnar Lothbrok, descendant of the Norse all-father Odin. As "Vikings Season 4" will probe the relationship between Ragnar Lothbrok and his sons, S4 may expose grown Ivar The Boneless (Alex Høgh Andersen) as a sly enemy.

According to History Extra, "Vikings" creator Michael Hirst explained the motivations of Ragnar Lothbrok and his exploits in relation to Norse all-father Odin. Hirst's treatment of "Vikings" departs from historical cliche on the Norsemen of old and shows them to be inventive, fair to women, democratic and family oriented.

  Michael Hirst shares that Ragnar Lothbork borrows from the historical Viking leader and the Ragnar Lodbrok of the Icelandic Sagas. As a descendant of Odin the "Vikings" series gave Ragnar Lothbrok, a warrior, the unique layer of curiosity and poetry. Throughout the "Vikings" series, knowledge and experience rather than rape and pillage motivated Ragnar Lothbrok. The series also developed Lagertha (Katheryn Winnick) and Princess Aslaug (Alyssa Sutherland) onto "Vikings Season 4" as faithful illustrations of true Norsewomen in the Viking age. The "Vikings Season 4" midseason premiere will once more hand Ragnar Lothbrok the chance to rebuild his family. However, the "Vikings Season 4" midseason finale posed Ragnar Lothbrok a big challenge.

Foremost is the resentment and sense of abandonment form the sons of Ragnar Lothbrok, Bjorn Ironside (Alexander Ludwig), Ubbe (Jordan Patrick Smith), Hvitserk (Marco Islø), Sigurd Snake-In-The-Eye (David Lindstron) and Ivar The Boneless in "Vikings Season 4" midseason finale. According to IGN, "Vikings Season 4" midseason will allow Ragnar Lothbrok to take full stock of the grown Ubbe, Hvitserk, Sigurd Snake-In-The-Eye and Ivar The Boneless.

"Vikings Season 4" midseason premiere will reacquaint viewers with Ubbe who has become a leader in Kattegat and a father figure in place of Ragnar Lothbrok. Hvitserk may seem like the quiet son but "Vikings Season 4" will reveal the strength in him.

Sigurd Snake-In-The-Eye will be one to give Ragnar Lothbrok trouble following his heartaches before "Vikings Season 4" midseason finale. According to IGN, Ubbe, Hvitserk, Sigurd Snake-In-The-Eye unanimously describe Ivar The Boneless as a lunatic.

Interestingly, Ivar The Boneless is predicted win over "Vikings Season 4" viewers of all the sons of Ragnar Lothbrok. Which may help Ivar The Boneless hide that fact that the "most Viking" of all the sons of Ragnar Lothbrok has sly strength.
