Following the success of the 2025 television series Life on Seacrow Island (Vi på Saltkråkan), SF Studios is bringing Astrid Lindgren’s beloved archipelago world to cinemas. The feature film is now in production, written by Karin Arrhenius and directed by Fredrik Edfeldt.

The TV series was one of the most acclaimed Swedish productions of 2025 and last week it received a Kristallen nomination in the Best Children’s Programme category.

“Seacrow Island has a way of staying with you. To return and tell more stories about these characters – this time for the big screen – is a privilege,” says Karin Arrhenius.

Karolin is finally back in control of her life. She’s gone through a divorce, secured a new apartment and is somewhat managing to make life work as a single parent. But when her mum suddenly ends up in hospital as well, it’s the final straw and Karolin realizes she’s in full crisis mode. Luckily she has got Saga to lean on, her very closest friend. Karolin and Saga have been inseparable since middle grade. Saga is much like a bonus child in Karolin’s family and the godmother of her daughter. But just as Karolin needs her friend the most, something has happened. Saga has met a new man and Karolin soon notices how Saga changes when she’s around him. How she seems to slip away from her. Isn’t he rather controlling? When Saga tells her that she and Jon are moving in together far from town, it comes as a shock to Karolin. Not only have things progressed so quickly, Saga has also made the decision without saying a word to Karolin.

Karolin tries to be happy for her. Tries to trust Saga’s judgment. Then out of the blue Saga severs her ties completely with Karolin – no explanation offered.

The Fallout is skillfully told from different perspectives, where both parties own their truth and experiences. It’s a psychologically perceptive novel about the dark sides to friendship: about loyalties, jealousy and betrayal – and what happens when your best friend dumps you without warning.

The nominations for this year’s Kristallen Awards have been announced.

My Brother, written by Karin Arrhenius, is nominated for Best Drama Series. Life on Seacrow Island, also written by Arrhenius, and Anders Sparring’s Lokes hemlighet are nominated for Best Children’s Programme.

Erik Svedberg-Zelman has received a nomination for Best Supporting Actor for his role in the drama series Golden Boys and Moah Madsen is nominated for Best Supporting Actor for her performance in Diary of a Ditched Girl.

The winner will be announced on August 31^st at the Kristallen Gala in Stockholm.

Apple TV has just unveiled a first look at Nocturne, the riveting new drama based on the internationally bestselling crime novels by Lars Kepler.

Nocturne will make its global debut on Friday, October 30, 2026 with the first two episodes, followed by new episodes every Friday through December 25, 2026 on Apple TV.

The show tells the story of Jonah Lynn (Liev Schreiber), an ex-soldier turned homicide detective who, tired of working the tough streets of Philadelphia, moves to a small town in Western Pennsylvania for a quiet life. But as the town and his family come under attack from the diabolically cunning serial killer Jurek Walter (Stephen Graham), Jonah must protect all that he holds dear. When the desperate search for Jurek’s last missing victim forces Jonah to send his surrogate daughter, FBI Agent Saga Bauer (Zazie Beetz), up against Jurek, how far will Jonah go?

The ensemble cast starring alongside Schreiber, Beetz and Graham includes Bill Camp, Rory Culkin, Chrissy Metz, Poorna Jagannathan and Gary Carr.

The 10-episode drama is written and executive produced by BAFTA Award winner Rowan Joffe (Tin Star, The Ballad of a Small Player) and John Hlavin (Shooter, The Man Who Fell to Earth), with Emmy, Peabody and DGA Award winner Tim Van Patten (Franklin, Masters of the Air, Black Mirror) to executive produce and direct the first two episodes.
