Viaplay Orders New Season of Those Who Kill

Viaplay has renewed the Danish crime drama Those Who Kill for a third season, set to air in early 2023.

The series, produced by Miso Film, centers on Louise Bergstein, a psychological profiler who confronts the darkest recesses of the human psyche. The new season will see Bergstein join the hunt for a brutal killer despite suffering from anxiety after her previous case.

“Louise endured a traumatic experience in the previous season, and now she’s feeling the full effects,” said Natalie Madueño (The Rain, Follow the Money), who stars in the lead role. “This time, we meet a much more vulnerable and human Louise who is forced to face up to her past—and to decide how she wants to live in the future.”

Filippa Wallestam, chief content officer of Nordic Entertainment Group, added, “Nordic noir has become a global screen phenomenon because of productions such as Those Who Kill. This is stylish, unnerving and completely compelling entertainment. I can guarantee the new season will take the show to yet another level, with a lead character whose complexity just keeps deepening and a shocking twist halfway through.”
