Netflix 'Vikings' Spin-Off Will Be Filmed In Wicklow


Netflix has revealed a new spin-off of the TV series Vikings will be filmed in Ireland.

Vikings: Valhalla is a sequel to the original, set 100 years after that show's conclusion and following a new group of famous historical vikings.

It will be filmed at Ashford Studios in Co Wicklow.

Creator Michael Hirst says he's happy to be returning to the crew's 'home for the last eight years'.

He said: "Our Irish crew, in my opinion, is the best and most professional crew in the world.

"Ireland is well known for its support of writers and drama and Vikings has benefited, and will now continue to benefit, from both that cultural and financial support."

Netflix says it has a number of other Irish productions also underway - including My Father's Dragon from the Kilkenny-based Cartoon Saloon.
