Headhunters S1
Adapted from the novel by all-time bestselling Norwegian author Jo Nesbø, and its 2011 cult film adaptation, the dark corporate thriller Headhunters centres on Roger Brown, a ruthless corporate headhunter who has lied and manipulated his way to success, both personally and professionally. But when his lies begin to catch up with him, it becomes a danger to both himself and the people around him.
A fast-paced mix of dark humour and thrills, Headhunters is led by Scandinavian stars Axel Boyum (Betrayed) and Martin Wallström (Mr. Robot’s Tyrell Wellick).
The series is set in 2002, before the main events of either the novel or the film.
