The head writer on the project is Petter Skavlan.<\/p>\n<p>This is Dramacorp-Pampas Studios&#8217;s second collaboration with Guillou after adapting his <em>Hamilton<\/em> spy-thriller novels into <em>Agent Hamilton<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Patrick Nebout, executive producer of Dramacorp-Pampas Studios, said: \u201cWith Jan Guillou\u2019s gripping family saga spanning several generations and countries, it\u2019s safe to say we\u2019re in for the long haul. I can think of no other writer than Jan who has explored in such scale and depth the complex bonds between Scandinavia and Germany in the early 20th century\u2014and no other screenwriter than Petter Skavlan, with his passion for larger-than-life drama, who would be capable of bringing this once-in-a-generation project to life. This is Scandinavia\u2019s answer to <em>The Crown <\/em>or <em>South and North<\/em>, with a modern tone and take. We\u2019re now set to find the best home and partners for this extraordinary project.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dramacorp-Pampas Studios has landed the rights to develop Swedish author Jan Guillou&#8217;s The Great Century book series for television.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":290,"featured_media":12298,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[2358,3479,3480],"class_list":["post-12297","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-dramacorp-pampas-studios","tag-jan-guillou","tag-the-great-century","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Dramacorp-Pampas Studios Preps The Great Century Adaptation - TVDRAMA<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/dramacorp-pampas-studios-prep-the-great-century-adaptation\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Dramacorp-Pampas Studios Preps The Great Century Adaptation - TVDRAMA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Dramacorp-Pampas Studios has landed the rights to develop Swedish author Jan Guillou&#039;s The Great Century book series for television.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/dramacorp-pampas-studios-prep-the-great-century-adaptation\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVDRAMA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2019-11-14T15:43:24+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2019-11-14T16:01:43+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2017\/07\/PatrickNebout-1119.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"319\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Mansha Daswani\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Mansha Daswani\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/dramacorp-pampas-studios-prep-the-great-century-adaptation\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/dramacorp-pampas-studios-prep-the-great-century-adaptation\/\",\"name\":\"Dramacorp-Pampas Studios Preps The Great Century Adaptation - TVDRAMA\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2019-11-14T15:43:24+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2019-11-14T16:01:43+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#\/schema\/person\/83da304c8bad8bfdb3edd7eb47cfe5ad\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/dramacorp-pampas-studios-prep-the-great-century-adaptation\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/dramacorp-pampas-studios-prep-the-great-century-adaptation\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/dramacorp-pampas-studios-prep-the-great-century-adaptation\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Dramacorp-Pampas Studios Preps The Great Century Adaptation\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/\",\"name\":\"TVDRAMA\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#\/schema\/person\/83da304c8bad8bfdb3edd7eb47cfe5ad\",\"name\":\"Mansha Daswani\",\"description\":\"Mansha Daswani is the editor-in-chief and associate publisher of World Screen.
