The third season is also where Ragnar will be given the title and power of a king, despite not wanting the aforementioned power. His new title however, is going to give him some problems later on. Some plot details regarding Ragnar's newfound power and title were unveiled during the San Diego Comic Con weeks ago.
"The first scene starts out off with all the trouble that power causes. I think throughout this year it really becomes alive, how hard it is to be a leader and all the sacrifices you have to make and all that sort of stuff," Travis Fimmel had said during an interview.
Even with the troubles facing him, the bright side to his title will allow Ragnar to finally go to places that he could not access before, like Paris.
"We go to Paris! Last year got caught up with so much family drama in Kattegat. So much drama that Ragnar and the boys, we didn't get to explore like we wanted to," Fimmel added.
