About Gaia Weiss
Gaia Weiss plays Porunn in Vikings. Her other film roles include Mary Fleming in Mary Queen of Scots, Hebe in The Legend of Hercules, Devin in Overdrive and Lisa in Meander. Shepherd adds the role of Rachel Black. These credits move from historical and mythological material to action and horror.
Meander is a strong next choice for a central film performance rather than another supporting part in a large period ensemble. The Legend of Hercules keeps the adventure scale but changes the mythic world. For viewers who wanted more time with Porunn, following the performer into a leading film offers a different way to explore her work.
