12 March 2024March 12, 2024- Today, Netflix debuted the trailer for 'Ronja the Robber's Daughter', the world-famous fantasy tale by Astrid Lindgren. The series is written by Hans Rosenfeldt and will launch on Netflix on March 28th.
In an expansive yet faithful reimaging of the classic tale, members are re-introduced to one of the most beloved stories in Sweden.
Lisa James Larsson, Director: "So many of us have grown up with Ronja the Robber's Daughter and we're incredibly proud and grateful for the enormous commitment and effort everyone has put into this project. We auditioned more than 4000 actors to find the right Ronja, and have traveled to the most incredible places Sweden has to offer, from castles in Bohuslän via the deep forests of Dalarna to magnificent waterfalls in Jämtland to find the perfect locations for filming. Our series reflects the strong commitment and creative passion of our film crew and cast of over 200 people, and we're so excited for it to launch soon on Netflix."
ABOUT RONJA THE ROBBER'S DAUGHTER Ronja the Robber's Daughter follows the adventures of a spirited and rebellious girl born into a gang of robbers in a medieval Scandinavian castle. As Ronja grows up, she discovers the magical, but dangerous forest with its strange and mysterious creatures. Yet she feels more at home in the forest than behind the walls of the huge castle. When Ronja meets the young boy Birk from a rival gang, it marks the beginning of a dark family feud and a forbidden friendship emerges, all while a notorious bailiff arrives to rid the forest of robbers once and for all.
The series is being released in two parts and is produced by Filmlance International - a part of Banijay, in co-production with Viaplay, Film i Väst, Ahil, ARD Degeto and with support from the European Union and Creative Europe.
