New Character in Vikings
On the season finale of Vikings this new character is introduced:
And so far Vikings has been as accurate as a series can be about an actual historical time and still be a show. But I'm afraid that the Tale of Ragnar's sons has ended, and so, who is this new character? He appears to be an English monk, but he has a sword of a Viking, as shown when he's having sex with that lady and the end of the episode. Who is this?
Best Answer
Well, this actor is Jonathan Rhys-Meyers who is playing a medieval bishop named Heahmund.
From this interview with Hirst
"He's a man of Wessex, and he's gonna come in as a worthy opponent to Ivar," Hirst promises, comparing the character to Richard III. "His whole life is about deeply passionate commitments. He's a wild card who happens to be [played by] Jonathan Rhys Meyers, who is himself kind of a wild card!"
From Travelers Today
The creator also added that Rhys-Meyers' character as Headmund will probably be against Ivar and it seems like however, their encounter will not happen yet in the next season; however, his character will appear in the episode of season four, Ace Showbiz reported. The film creator added that he is really perfect for this crazy and religious kind of character.
