'Longmire' Season 5 Spoilers: A Love Triangle Brews Between Walt, Vic, and Donna; The End of Walt and Henry's Friendship Looms
Walt Longmire discovers that Henry is a vigilante.
In less than a month's time, "Longmire" Season 5 will be released by the popular streaming giant, Netflix. The much anticipated new season is said to not only feature a love triangle, but also the demise of a friendship.
Two personas of Henry
Lou Diamond Phillips revealed in an interview that he actually has two personas in the series. Walt Longmire (Robert Taylor) does not know that his friend Henry (Phillips) is a vigilante. Their friendship might be affected once Walt discovers this previously unknown side of his friend.
When last seen in "Longmire", Henry was being carted off to jail by Mathias, played by Zahn McClarnon. Phillips said in the same interview that Henry might not go to jail after all, due to a plot twist that fans of "Longmire" watch out for.
Spoilers say, however, that Henry might be cutting a deal with Mathias. Phillips added that Henry will continue his other role of Hector, a sort of vigilante, who brings justice to his reservation. This different side of him might bring him right into a collision course with his best friend, Walt Longmire.
Walt and Vic's relationship
Meanwhile, the romantic relationship between Walt and Vic will reportedly be addressed in "Longmire" Season 5. If the new season stays on course with Craig Johnson's "Walt Longmire Mysteries" book series, where the series was based from, the two will definitely move forward in their relationship. Viewers will also be given a glimpse of their future together.
Katee Sackhoff, who plays Vic, shared a promo photo on Instagram that showed her and Robert Taylor in character. Both of them were wearing police uniforms. Although the two characters appeared to be on duty, speculations arose that the two will become romantic in "Longmire" Season 5.
Donna still in the picture
But, in the previous season, Walt was still having an affair with Donna (Ally Walker). To be able to pursue anything romantic with Vic, Walt has to naturally have to sort things out with Donna first.
Even as rumors go as far as having Walt and Vic getting married, things might not go as smoothly as expected for the pair. Henry is being pointed to as one of the hurdles in their relationship. There is even a rumor that he may cause a car accident that will involve Walt and Vic, and would prevent them from having their happily ever after.
Release date
The release date "Longmire" Season 5 will be on September 23 on Netflix.
