“Wallander,” the globally-acclaimed Swedish detective drama, is back. Banijay Entertainment has unveiled plans for a modernized and reimagined reboot of “Wallander” with Gustaf Skarsgård (“Oppenheimer,” “Vikings”) playing the iconic role.
Hailing from Jarowskij/Yellow Bird, TV4 and Banijay Rights, the first season of this new Swedish-language adaptation will comprise three 90-minute films. They will be directed by Molly Hartleb (“Riding In Darkness,” “Top Dog”), as well as Pella Kågerman and Hugo Lilja, the duo behind the highly-anticipated “Egghead Republic.”
