Black Bear Signs Oskar Söderlund

Black Bear’s management arm has signed Swedish creator, writer and showrunner Oskar Söderlund for international representation.

Söderlund is best known for creating the hit Netflix original series Snabba Cash. He was recently tapped to write and showrun a television adaptation of the popular John le Carré novel A Most Wanted Man from production companies The Ink Factory and Amusement Park (All Quiet on the Western Front).

Söderlund currently serves as the head writer on TV4’s Cry Wolf, a thriller based on Hans Rosenfeldt’s novel of the same name, and on Netflix’s series The Breakthrough—both of which are set to premiere early next year.

Söderlund’s previous work includes award-winning television series The Fat and the Angry, directed by Johan Renck; internationally acclaimed thriller series Greyzone; and five-part psychological drama series The Dark Heart, which debuted on Discovery+.

Söderlund continues to be represented by his long-time Scandinavian representatives the Salomonsson Agency in the Nordics, as well as CAA internationally.
