Actress Katheryn Winnick attends Entertainment Weekly's Comic-Con Bash held at Float, Hard Rock Hotel San Diego on July 23, 2016 in San Diego, California sponsored by HBO.

Katheryn Winnick has come a long way from being the household name through her role as Lagertha in HBO TV series ''Vikings'' to being a lead actress in big-budget movies. Her upcoming movie ''Geostorm'' which will open in cinemas on Oct. 20, 2017 is expected to put her career in a different trajectory.

Winnick will play the role of Olivia, who is the ex-wife of the protagonist Jake (played by Gerard Butler). She is the mother of their daughter Hannah. According to the official website of this movie, this gorgeous Canadian actress joined the cast of this movie in 2014. This multi-talented actress has a Black Belt of the third degree in Tae Kwand Do and a Black Belt of the second degree in Karate. The fans are waiting to witness some action scenes from the actress, as she has carved a niche for herself as a strong actress.

This American science fiction disaster action thriller will be produced by Village Roadshow Pictures, Electric Entertainment and Skydance Media. Warner Bros. Pictures has the distribution rights of this movie. The plot of this movie revolves around Jake who is a satellite scientist and tries to fix the problems in the climate-controlling satellites in space. He tries to save the earth from an apocalypse and in the process unearths the plot to kill plot to assassinate the president Palma (played by Andy García).

Winnick's last movie was ''Stripped'' which was a short movie and she played the role of Margaret Dupre. Last time the fans saw her on big screen was in ''The Art of the Steal'' which was released on Sep. 20, 2013 in Canada and prior to that on Sep. 11, 2013 in Toronto International Film Festival. This Canadian comedy film had cast Winnick as Lola, who plays the role of Kurt Russell's (as Crunch Calhoun) girlfriend in the movie.

Winnick is best remembered for her movie ''Love & Other Drugs'' which was released on Nov. 24, 2010 in the US and made $102.8 million in the box-office. In this American erotic romantic comedy-drama film, she had a small but significant role as Lisa. Her other movie ''Stand Up Guys'' which was released on Feb. 1, 2013 in the US for commercial viewing saw her as Oxana. Again this was not a main lead role.

Winnick is more popular in her roles in the TV series like ''House'', ''The Glade, Bones,'' ''Law & Order,'' ''CSI,'' ''Criminal Minds'' and Nikita. Since she will now share screen space with A listers in Hollywood like Butler, one can hope that her career will take a new turn now.
