Vikings Cast: Where Are They Now?

10. Linus Roache

The Golden Globe nominated Englishman rose to fame in such television shows as 'Law & Order' and 'Coronation Street'. He also appeared in the biographical films 'The Gathering Storm' and 'RFK', portraying Robert F. Kennedy.

Roache departed the show in 2017, having played the ambitious Ecbert Ealhmunding. The King of Wessex and Mercia was the familiar foe, and occasional ally, to Ragnar Lothbrok during his four-season stint.

The Mancunian went from U.S. Attorney General to White House Chief of Staff, featuring as David Wellington in the final two seasons of the SHOWTIME thriller 'Homeland'. He also appeared in all six episodes of the cold war drama 'Summer of Rockets'. In that series, he portrayed Richard Shaw MP, alongside 'Line of Duty' and 'Bodyguard' star, Keeley Hawes.

Linus has recently worked on the novel-to-film adaptation of 'Being Dead' and 'My Policeman'; both of which are currently in post-production. Most notably, he has gone on to co-star in the psychedelic horror film 'Mandy' with Nicholas Cage.
