The series began by following the rise of legendary Viking Ragnar Lothbrok, who dared to sail West and eventually landed on the shores of North-East England.

The actor has been riding a horses, jousting and sword fighting since childhood, and is also, according to History, a Muay Thai boxing expert and fencing gold medalist — meaning you wouldn't want to challenge Standen on any battlefield, Viking or not.

The story covers about 40–45 years by the end of season 4. In many ways, Floki actually holds the key to Ragnar’s rise to power, since he is the master engineer who manages to build boats capable of crossing the North Sea. Swedish actor Gustaf Skarsgård plays the loveable and quirky boatbuilder Floki in Vikings. In fact, he was pumping iron when he got randomly spotted by a talent scout, who had him fly out to California with only $60 in his pocket.

She's also a licensed bodyguard and self-defense instructor. Harald Bloodhair (known as Sigurd Bloodhair in the TV series) was a supporting character and antagonist in both The Saxon Stories novel series, and The Last Kingdom television series. In fact, it's easy to argue that Winnick is the most iconically Viking-looking actor on the entire show, even if she doesn't really hail from Scandinavia. Though she never sports the shield-maiden hairstyles of Lagertha, nor does she have Aslaug's ability to bewitch men, Hirst nevertheless looks like a loving Viking with her long blonde hair and kind face. In fact, Hirst was originally interested in gymnastics, but realized acting might be in her future after being spotted by a casting director scouting gymnasts for an upcoming film. But don't let that clean-shaven appearance fool you. Neither had Dunford. Peter Franzén as Harald ‘Finehair’ Last but not least, Harald ‘Finehair’ certainly lives … So don't mess with Earl Ingstad.

Unlike his character, however, Andersen maintains a fairly standard Euro cut, as opposed to slightly more dramatic Viking cuts he's seen on the show. Indeed, Winnick looks like a Viking, with her platinum blonde hair — which, on the show, is often tied into killer styles — and icy blue eyes. Like Ragnar, he has also changed a lot since the start of the show, transforming from an idealistic young man to an old adventurer who is looking for a place to retire and be close to the gods. "I got into my first school when I was 16," Winnick told StarPulse. In real life, however, Clive Standen looks less ferocious, as he tends to stay sharp with short, tidy hair and a finely-trimmed beard.

He is a loyal friend to Ragnar and loving husband to Helga, both of whom share his devotion to the Viking gods. Most people know George Blagden as the Vikings holy man Athelstan, who's well-versed in both Christianity and Norse paganism, loved by both King Ragnar and King Ecbert, and generally an all around righteous dude... if, at times, a bit nutty. Regular viewers of the series will know that Bjorn has undergone quite the transformation since his first appearance on the show. Now, if only they'd put Fimmel's most remarkably savage murder face on a Calvin Klein billboard. The blonde bombshell has also appeared on the big screen, with roles in Stand Up Guys, Failure to Launch, Love & Other Drugs, Killers, and The Dark Tower.

As his character has aged, we've seen actor Alexander Ludwig go from sporting some uncommonly common hair and peach fuzz beard to a shaved head — save one extra-long, braided pony-tail — and a fierce raiding beard.

Roache is definitely no stranger to playing the king. Sounds like Rollo, all right... at least, after he turned Frank.
