Vikings Season 3 Release Date, Spoilers: New Cast Rumors Emerge

There's still a while to go yet until The History Channel's most successful series The Vikings Season 3 premieres in 2015, but rumors are already swirling about the new season, and fans are gearing up for what looks like another exciting season of the hit show. According to new reports, a couple of new cast members will be added to the upcoming season.

Of course the spoilers for the upcoming season cannot be completely considered as 'spoilers' because the story will be based on real events after the revolutionary war. But executive producers and the director of the highly ranked series will be finding ways to give twists, and surprise fans as they tell the stories for its audience.

Show creator Michael Hirst teased fans saying that the new season will show new lands to be conquered.

"I think we have to up the game again, and Season 3 will certainly feature a very famous event which was their first Viking attack on Paris that Ragnar led. It's the most extraordinary episode. We're gonna attack Paris. Paris was the most extraordinary city. It was still a Roman city, and it was like nothing else on earth. We're just building that, at the moment, on the backlot. It will also be CGI. Ragnar attacked Paris with one hundred ships," said Hirst in his interview in collider.com.

The season promises to be packed with many interesting characters from Season 2's heart-pounding finale. Erlendur's dreadful murder of his family may be a central plot to the next season. Reports think that he might take it out on the new king.

"There is an American version of 'Vikings,' and then there is a European/world version, which is longer and has other scenes in it, anyway, Erlendur has been impressed by the idea of going to farm in England. And in his pocket he has a handful of mud, earth from England. When Ragnar sees him with this handful of dirt, he knows that he's thinking along the same lines, that they're connected in some way. So he spares him. But, of course, that turns out to be a terrible decision in the end," Hirst said in an interview with the Huffington Post.
