‘Vikings’ Season 4 Open Casting Call for a ton of featured roles
Vikings centers on Ragnar (Travis Fimmel) a young warrior and family man who wants to find and conquer new lands across the seas. The television series is produced by MGM Television.
Vikings is inspired by the sagas of Viking Ragnar Lothbrok, one of the best-known mythological Norse heroes and notorious as the scourge of England and France. It portrays Ragnar as a former farmer who rises to fame by successful raids into England with the support of his family and fellow warriors: his brother Rollo, his son Bjorn, and his wives—the shieldmaiden Lagertha and the princess Aslaug.
