In 2010, Swedish director Daniel Espinosa and a then unknown actor named Joel Kinnaman teamed on the gritty international crime thriller “Snabba Cash” (aka. “Easy Money”). That film spawned a trilogy and launched both their careers.
Whilst an American film remake was planned and failed to materialise, Netflix has created a new TV series which serves as something of a semi-sequel set in the same world as the trilogy but taking place a decade later.
Stockholm is now buzzing environment where the craving for status and money is stronger than ever and the criminal world has become even more brutal, chaotic and ruthless.
The action this time follows Leya (Evin Ahmad), a young single mother trying to make it within the startup scene who becomes entangled in the criminal world.
Alexander Abdallah, Ali Alarik, Olle Sarri, Dada Fungula Bozela, and Jozef Wojciechowicz also star in this six-episode series which, like the trilogy before it, is based on Jens Lapidus’ 2006 novel. Check out the new trailers below:
