TV4 is turning the so-called ‘Trustor Scandal’ of 1997, one of Sweden’s largest and most infamous fraud cases, into a fast-paced drama series of four parts, starring Erik Svedberg-Zelman in one of the leading roles as Thomas Jisander.

The series, directed by Ivica Zubak and written by Erik Hultkvist, will depict how a British lord and three Swedish businessmen managed to buy the long-established investment company Trustor with the company’s own money – only to then pay out very large bonuses to themselves. Both detested and admired – the story of the affair and the spectacular partying at Stureplan and the French Riviera has continued to fascinate for decades.

“We are now in the process of filming and the ambition is high to deliver a new exciting drama series about the sensational heist. We have a well-written script, a fantastic cast and strong direction, and in addition,the series takes place in many cool 90s locations”, says Jon Mankell, executive producer at TV4.

The series is produced by FLX for TV4 in a co-production with Film i Väst. The filming locations are set in Stockholm, Gothenburg and Croatia.

More details about the series, such as title, full cast and release date will be communicated next year.

What is the price of being Mr. One? Teddy knows, more than well. Even though he’s made himself a fair amount of money on a number of illegal operations, he doesn’t sleep well at night. The pressure from those around him is bigger than ever. His closest man thinks they should go for heavier stuff. There’s also a rumor going around that someone wants him dead. Teddy turns to his brother Darko for protection, Darko who’s just come home from an unhappy time in Malmö’s underworld.

Meanwhile, Jossan has stepped up: bigger business, more dangerous games. She has opinions on Teddy’s unwillingness to go for the heavier goods. Teddy has to choose. Should he take the bloody path lined with drugs – one that could lead to big money but which is also potentially lethal – or should he try to rekindle things with Emelie and Lukas and build a future on the right side of the law?

Grand Finale is the sixth and final installment in Jens Lapidus’ lauded Top Dog series.

Today, Netflix released the official trailer for The Helicopter Heist, the Swedish reality-based suspense series in eight parts which tells the story of the meticulous planning, ingenuity, and nerve that went into pulling off one of the most daring crimes in history.

One early September morning in 2009, eyes from around the world turn to an inconspicuous Stockholm suburb. A helicopter has landed on the roof of the country’s safest cash depot, and the police can only watch as the robbers disappear along with several million dollars. Not a single shot is fired. The Helicopter Heist is a character-driven and emotional story of brother- and fatherhood, but maybe most of all: a grand and fast-paced Icarus tale about winning or losing it all.

The limited series, directed by Daniel Espinosa (conceptual director) and written by Ronnie Sandahl, is based on Jonas Bonnier’s novel with the same name.

The Helicopter Heist premiers globally on November 22nd and stars Mahmut Suvakci, Ardalan Esmaili, Iskra Kostic, Erik Svedberg-Zelman and Nina Mårshagen, among else.
