Swedish director Tomas Alfredson (<em>The Snowman<\/em>,<em> Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy<\/em>, <em>Let the Right One In<\/em>) is directing the series from a script penned by Norway\u2019s Sara Johnsen (<em>July 22<\/em>, <em>The Occupation<\/em>, <em>Winter Kiss<\/em>).<\/p>\n<p>The <em>Faithless<\/em> TV series was unveiled at the annual Bergman Week on F\u00e5r\u00f6 island.<\/p>\n<p>Anna Croneman, head of drama at SVT, said: \u201cTo bring together two such strong creatives as Sara Johnsen and Tomas Alfredson, with a unique and at the same time timeless text by Ingmar Bergman, is extremely exciting. It is also an example of the ambitious projects like us at SVT Drama, and Public Service in general, will need to protect in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alfredson added: \u201cSometime during the winter of 2001, I contacted Ingmar Bergman and asked if I could reinterpret his story. Initially he said it sounded like \u2018a drunken idea.\u2019 But the longer we talked about it, he thought it sounded both \u2018terribly exciting\u2019 and \u2018really sh*tty.\u2019 Now it is finally time to make a television series of Ingmar Bergman&#8217;s shocking love triangle drama. I have a hard time seeing that I have ever faced a bigger task and promise that I will lift my hat for what has been and roll up my sleeves for what will be.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Johnsen commented: \u201cIt is inspiring to develop, marvel at and expand Bergman&#8217;s text, which through complex characters is possessed by forces greater than themselves. Collaborating with Tomas Alfredson makes writing a party, and it feels like we&#8217;re making the best character-driven TV drama of all time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Peter Bose, CEO and producer at Miso Film, commented: \u201cI clearly remember Liv Ullmann\u2019s adaptation of Ingmar Bergman&#8217;s <em>Faithless<\/em>, who made a great impression when I saw the film at the Cannes Film Festival in 2000. <em>Faithless<\/em> is an eternally valid story about love and jealousy, and not least the feelings that are aroused when you fall in love. With Tomas Alfredson&#8217;s and Sara Johnsen&#8217;s intensive reinterpretation of <em>Faithless<\/em>, it is as relevant today as when Bergman wrote his original text. Jonas Allen, Ren\u00e9 Ezra and I look forward to producing the TV series together with SVT and Anna Croneman, with whom we most recently collaborated with on the Danish series <em>The Investigation<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SVT has partnered with the Fremantle company Miso Film to co-produce a TV adaptation of Ingmar Bergman\u2019s Faithless.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1033,"featured_media":17156,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[5084,2697,5085,1437,731],"class_list":["post-17155","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-faithless","tag-fremantle","tag-ingmar-bergman","tag-miso-film","tag-svt","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>SVT &amp; Miso Film Pact for Faithless TV Series - 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\/svt-miso-film-pact-for-faithless-tv-series\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"SVT &amp; Miso Film Pact for Faithless TV Series - TVDRAMA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"SVT has partnered with the Fremantle company Miso Film to co-produce a TV adaptation of Ingmar Bergman\u2019s Faithless.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/svt-miso-film-pact-for-faithless-tv-series\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVDRAMA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2022-07-05T14:33:48+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2022-07-05T17:29:37+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2017\/07\/faithless-svt-0722.jpeg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"400\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/svt-miso-film-pact-for-faithless-tv-series\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/svt-miso-film-pact-for-faithless-tv-series\/\",\"name\":\"SVT &amp; Miso Film Pact for Faithless TV Series - TVDRAMA\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2022-07-05T14:33:48+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2022-07-05T17:29:37+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/svt-miso-film-pact-for-faithless-tv-series\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/svt-miso-film-pact-for-faithless-tv-series\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/svt-miso-film-pact-for-faithless-tv-series\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"SVT &amp; Miso Film Pact for Faithless TV Series\"}]},{\"@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\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\",\"name\":\"Chelsea Regan\",\"description\":\"Chelsea Regan is the managing editor of World Screen.
