Netflix has announced the upcoming Swedish comedy The Storm, written and directed by Josephine Bornebusch (Love Me, Orca), slated for a global realease on Netflix in 2026. Filming has wrapped, and the film is currently in post-production.
Synopsis
Filip (Gustav Skarsgård) is turning 45, and has invited his closest friends for dinner at his and his wife’s lavish and newly bought farm estate up north in Sweden. What they don’t know is that a ferocious storm is on its way and that they’ll be trapped together. Their polished acts fall, and an unfiltered meltdown starts. When the panic starts to creep in and they all realise the seriousness of the situation, the farm starts to shrink, secrets spill out, and unexpected feelings take shape.
“I’m so happy about the amazing ensemble who wanted to make this film with me – they are truly fantastic actors who have given their all to the movie! It feels exciting to do this outrageous comedy. I’m really looking forward to sharing this film with the audience!“
