While many fans wondered who are the gods in Ragnarok on Netflix, the series turned out to be about something very different in the end. Instead, it held ont its coming-of-age elements by reimagining Norse mythology. Ragnarok season 1 ended on a feverishly climactic note, with Magne (David Stakston) going up against the Jutul patriarch, Vidar (Gísli Örn Garðarsson), and the next two seasons introduced more characters based on these gods in some unique ways. The Norwegian fantasy drama shifted its focus on Magne’s brother, Laurits (Jonas Strand Gravli), which paved the way for the big reveal of his true identity and parentage.
