The Transformation Of Katheryn Winnick From Toddler To 44 Years Old

Before "Vikings," Katheryn Winnick was best known for her stint on "Bones," appearing in seven episodes of the popular procedural between 2010 and 2011. She played Hannah Burley, a journalist who had an off-screen thing with FBI Special Agent Seeley Booth (David Boreanaz) during his time in Afghanistan. She moved to Washington so they could be together in Season 6, which didn't go down well with many fans of the show, who were still hoping that Booth would end up with forensic anthropologist Temperance "Bones" Brennan (Emily Deschanel).

"I heard that I may be causing a stir," Winnick said in a conference call at the time, per The TV Mega Site Inc. "But, I'm excited about it. I think people are going to be excited about my character." It didn't work out for Burley and Booth, but Winnick had fun playing the feisty war correspondent. "I'm very similar to her in a lot of ways," she said. "Being work driven, being ambitious, being always wanting more out of life and finding out the facts, and not one to sit around and let things happen to me, but really making things happen."

Winnick was making plenty of movie appearances around this time, too, most notably "The Art of the Steal." She wore a black wig in the Kurt Russell-led crime caper. "It was interesting to see how the cast and crew reacted to someone differently just by your physical appearance," she told FansShare. "They had no idea I was blonde."
