'Vikings' spin-off: Bjorn, Rollo, or William the Conqueror? Fans discuss Michael Hirst's continuation of the History series

From 'Bjorned' to Rollo in Normandy, here are fan theories on what the spinoff should be about, and they are certain they don't want it to be about one certain 'Vikings' character

The story of Ragnar Lothbrok wrapped up in season 4 and the tale of his sons will conclude in the upcoming installment, season 6. However, that will not be the end of 'Vikings.' Michael Hirst, the creator of the History Channel's flagship show promptly announced a spin-off is being discussed and the saga will continue. Talking about expanding the 'Vikings' universe, Hirst said there will be a continuation and a connection but "it may not involve necessarily the same characters."

He added, "I can’t go into more details than that, but for the fans of the show it will be a continued enjoyment of the Vikings experience.” The news of the spin-off gave immense hope to 'Vikings' fans, who, of course, were disheartened to know the saga would end after season 6, releasing later this year.  Fans took to Reddit to discuss the 'Vikings' spin-off and came up with some hilarious and interesting speculations.
