Vikings – The History Channel

In 2013 The History Channel made the decision to throw their hat into the original programming ring and what they came up with is now regarded as one of the most acclaimed television shows in the world. Vikings has established itself as a true international phenomenon and is heading in front of cameras soon for a new batch of magnificent stories. Casting call announcements for a number of roles have just been released that could help several performers of all ages and looks make their mark in an epic action/drama series.

Vikings tells the gripping, action packed story of mighty hero Ragnar Lothbrok and his ascent to the King of the Viking tribes. The Game of Thrones-esque series follows Lothbrok as he fights alongside his

fearless band of Viking warriors and his fantastically plotting family. BAFTA Film Award nominated creator Michael Hirst (The Tudors, Elizabeth, The Deceivers) has recruited an outstanding cast to portray his unforgettable characters. The fabulous lineup includes such talents as Katheryn Winnick (Bones, The Art of the Steal, Geostorm), Travis Fimmel (The Beast, The Baytown Outlaws, Maggie’s Plan), Clive Standen (Camelot, Waking the Dead, Doctor Who), Gustaf Skarsgård (The Way Back, Trust Me, Kon-Tiki), Jessalyn Gilsig (Glee, Heroes, Friday Night Lights), Alyssa Sutherland (The Devil Wears Prada, Don’t Look Up, Arbitrage) and Golden Globe nominee Linus Roache (Non-Stop, Batman Begins, Law & Order).

    My name is Selina, I’m from Switzerland (so not too far away from Ireland and I speak English fluently) I’m 21 (but I look younger) and I’m very fair. I’m 5’6” and slim.
    Vikings is a very gripping TV show I just love. I love the beautiful scenery, the wonderful costumes and the view one gets on what the Celtic life might have looked like. Since I have always been more than fascinated with the Celtic culture I would love to have even a small part in the series simply because I love the show and Ireland is one of my favorite countries. I have had some acting experience on stage and could add to a Celtic vibe with flute play. I’m also more than happy to learn new things.

    Age: 18
    Gender: Male
    Height: 5’11
    Weight: 180 lbs.
    Hair: Short Black
    Eyes: Brown but beautiful
    Ethnicity: Hispanic (Cuban American)

    Skin: A nice tan
    Skills: Adaptability, Quick Learning, Acting, extremely Charismatic, Music, Martial Arts, Poi, Sailing, other Circus tricks. Can produce an Irish and English accent. Mastermind Roleplayer.

    Why:
    Look. Yes I love the series. But I like telling a story. Not to be in one, not for the money, but to tell a story of one of my favorite genres of dark mythology out there. When I act I not only tell a story I involve the audience in a sense that they feel drawn to the performance.
    I am a psychology major and I love what makes people tick and body language is a big must use for me.

    Previous experience:
    Play acting for kids in hospitals for a couple of years as well as a few school projects that have been highly commended on performance and story value.

    I do martial arts including Kali and Wing Chun, so I am an avid fighter.

  24. Thomas Church

    Hello,
    My name is Thomas Church and I’ve recently been trying to start up an acting career. I understand that there are many people within this industry, but I’m not intimidated by it, and will continue to strive to get onto the big screen. I’m 5’6″ and slim, 130 pounds with brown hair and brown eyes. I’m 20 years old, male, caucasian. My skills that I could bring to this picture include multiple years of experience working both as a stage-hand, and as an actor in play productions hosted by not only my high school, but another neighboring high school in the town I live in. These experiences include multiple musicals and plays, and a concert paying tribute to the old Rock & Roll of the 60s and 70s. On top of my experience acting I have also studied under multiple martial arts, such as Kendo, Kung Fu, and Judo. I’ve always thought of the Viking period as one the most interesting, along with Norse Mythology, which was one of my major studies in high school, leading me to want to be a part of this project. Along with my attached email I can be reached by cell at 507-649-0385. I’d love to be a part of this movie in any possible way to be able to get my name out there.

  37. SRIKANTH

    Hello,

    I’m Srikanth 21 years old Indian. I usually love to act and want to be part of casting and filming, every time i get new clothes i take pictures of me, imagines myself like the character which love most in any serial or movie, tries to practice their dialogues the way they walk, facial expression and omg a lot. Ever since i saw the trailer, i decided to watch the serial. Then after a couple of episodes its became more interesting. Ever since i see this trailer, i so love the acting of Travis’s character. The way he walks, his silence, his ideas, they way he speaks slowly but intelligent thoughts. Eventually im very much intrigued to be a part of this though i don’t have any knowledge of acting.
