Sky Atlantic adapting Scandinavian drama The Bridge for Britain
Quote:
With BBC4’s latest Scandinavian crime buy-in The Bridge in full swing, RadioTimes.com can confirm that production companies Kudos and Canal+ are in the process of developing a new version of the series for Sky Atlantic.
A spokesperson for Kudos said “We can confirm we are in development with Sky and Canal+ on a format loosely based on The Bridge," while a statement from the satellite broadcaster described the proposed series as "a complex crime drama… set against the machinations of European politics.”
Kudos is part of News Corp production company Shine, which also owns Filmlance, the Swedish producer of The Bridge.*
The original series sees police officers from Sweden and Denmark collaborating on a case, following the discovery of a body on the Oresund Bridge which links the two countries.
