Who is Harald Sigurdsson in Vikings: Valhalla?

The charming claimant — Norway, eventually everything · Kattegat & the North

Harald Sigurdsson (The charming claimant — Norway, eventually everything) is a character in Vikings: Valhalla, part of Kattegat & the North. Harald Sigurdsson — Hardrada, history will say — arrives as the age's most ambitious charmer: royal blood, a claim to Norway, and the flexible faith of a man who prays Christian and fights pagan as the room requires. His romance with Freydis and his brotherhood with Leif keep colliding with the only constant he has: the crown, pursued through London's bridge, Constantinople's gold and every alliance in between. The show's engine — a man everyone likes, trusted by no one who's paying attention.
