“I had a beard before this show, so I’m happy,” Travis said during the panel (via HuffPo). “I’m not a dresser-upper. My publicist got me this shirt and I have to wear it. I think it adds so much. This show is so good that it gets some reality involved.”

FYI: Travis wearing a Life/After/Denim shirt.

Travis Fimmel & Katheryn Winnick: 'Vikings' Screening Reception!

Travis Fimmel shows off his growing beard while attending a screening reception for his new show Vikings held at Leonard H. Goldenson Theatre on Friday (June 7) in North Hollywood, Calif.

The 33-year-old Aussie actor was joined by his co-stars Katheryn Winnick, George Blagden, Jessalyn Gilsig, and Clive Standen.

Vikings centers on the “sagas of Ragnar Lothbrok’s band of Viking brothers and his family, as he rises to become King of the Viking tribes.”

“[Travis] didn’t try to be a Viking, he had this deep Aussie accent, but he had depth, stillness and he believed what he was saying. Both myself and the director saw something, we had one of THOSE moments,” the show’s creator Michael Hirst recently shared.

Travis Fimmel: From Calvin Klein Model to 'Vikings' Star!

Travis Fimmel hits the red carpet at the Vikings panel at 2013 WonderCon held at the Anaheim Convention Center on Saturday (March 30) in Anaheim, Calif.

You may (or may not!) recognize the 33-year-old actor from his steamy hot Calvin Klein campaign that heated up billboards and magazines more than a decade ago.

Travis was actually the first male model to secure a six figure deal to model exclusively for Calvin Klein for a year back in 2002. He is now sporting a scruffier look for his role in the History Channel mini-series Vikings as a young Viking warrior who longs to discover civilizations across the seas and challenges the local ruler to allow raids into unexplored lands after he builds a new generation of faster longships.

Also pictured: Travis‘ co-stars Katheryn Winnick and George Blagden at the panel.
