Warning: This article contains spoilers for Vikings: Valhalla Season two.
Only one warrior can win over Vikings: Valhalla.
And that’s exactly what happened at the end of season two of the Netflix drama, which saw the epic confrontation between Freydís (Frida Gustavsson), a shield-wielding maiden dedicated to protecting the Pagan faith, and Olaf (Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson), a devout Christian determined to give up his old ways.
While some viewers might have assumed the sadistic Olaf would eventually prevail, Freydís proved she was both fierce and intelligent, taking out Olaf’s entire army with fire and destroying him in battle. one-on-one battle.
The final battle was epic and bloody, and according to Gustavsson, it took quite a bit of practice to succeed. “We wanted to make it as big as possible,” she told E! News. “We spent months working on that fight.”
Gustavsson recognizes the creator of “genius” Jeb Stuart for creating an ending that led the fierce battle of season one. “At the end of season one, I thought it was too big. Too much action,” she said. “And [Stuart] did it again. Better. Bigger. And I think Freydís and Olaf’s last game was fantastic.”
