Yes, the Vikings fans were really causing an uproar about this character. Its almost as if they've developed a loving relationship with a fictional character!
Which, don't get me wrong, is normal, and that's the point of art.
But sending death threats to people is about a million steps too far.
Well, at least Vikings fans do.
She is a strong character that really fits well into the world of Vikings. Although older versions of the character have become tired of all the violence.
How much? They sent the creator death threats because he might have thought of killing off the character.
Katheryn Winnick, the woman who plays Lagertha, talked to Rotten Tomatoes about the fans' overzealous love.
She continued:
"So in the end, we needed to come up with creative ways of still keeping her storyline alive."
So yes, it was your continued harassment that kept Lagertha from dying.
"You can see in the trailers that she buries her sword, that she kind of gives up being the shield maiden now. Especially since it defined who she is for so long, I struggled with how to be able to define her sense of strength and strong will even without the sword."
Are you happy she's still around? Let us know below in the comments!
