Lupin Creator's New Nordic Noir Series Tackles Deadly Stockholm Killings

In September 2025, acclaimed Lupin creator George Kay is set to launch his next project on Netflix - a thrilling Swedish crime series titled "The Case." The five-episode drama, directed by Kristoffer Nyholm, stars Jakob Oftebro and Peter Andersson as the lead investigator Thomas Berg and his father, the former detective Alfred.

As the endless summer takes hold over Stockholm, a dark shadow falls over the city. Thomas, a highly respected lead investigator, finds himself on the trail of a serial killer targeting his own police colleagues. Desperate to protect his fellow officers, Thomas makes a risky gamble - turning to his estranged father Alfred, a once well-regarded but now disgraced detective, for help.

The two must put aside their differences and find a way to work together if they have any chance of catching one of the worst killers in Sweden's history. "The Case" is described as part father-son love story, part gripping criminal thriller, bringing darkness even to the endless Stockholm summer.

Produced by B-Reel Films and Observatory Pictures in association with New Pictures, "The Case" recently wrapped filming in the Swedish capital and is set for a global launch on Netflix next year.
