NENT Group Renews Honour

Nordic Entertainment Group (NENT Group) has commissioned a second season of its hit original series Honour.

The drama explores contemporary themes such as injustice and inequality and set a Viaplay record for the most-watched original premiere ever on its opening weekend in fall 2019. Honour season two will premiere exclusively on Viaplay across the Nordic region in 2021.

Honour season one has been sold to RTL in Germany and VRT in Belgium by Eccho Rights, which will also distribute season two internationally.

Filippa Wallestam, NENT Group’s chief content officer, said: “This unsettling and exciting series began as a personal project for four of Sweden’s most talented actresses and has now become a huge success on Viaplay across the Nordic region as well as internationally. The themes explored in Honour are very relevant today and clearly appeal to a broad audience, so we are looking forward very much to the next season. This is great local Nordic storytelling by an amazing creative team, which is exactly what Viaplay is all about.”
