Viaplay Original Partisan Renewed

Nordic Entertainment Group (NENT Group) has commissioned a second season of the hit Viaplay original Partisan, which won the best series award at Canneseries 2020.

The five-episode second season continues the story of the rural gated community Jordnära. Amir Chamdin (God Willing) will return to helm the new season.

Co-produced by Warner Bros. International Television Production (NENT Group’s Love Me), Partisan season two will premiere exclusively on NENT Group’s Viaplay streaming service in 2022.

Chamdin said: “I’m so happy about making another season of Partisan. The interest and attention around the series has been huge, both in Sweden and internationally. It’s a given that we carry on where season one left off, and Jordnära, the community that we love to hate, will once again be at the center of the action.”

Filippa Wallestam, NENT Group’s chief content officer, said: “This series represents a milestone for Viaplay and, given its recognition by the Canneseries judges, for European streamed drama. In shot composition, use of music and sheer all-out intensity, Amir Chamdin has created a world the viewer can never forget. Renewing Partisan is one of our most exciting and also easiest decisions this year.”
