Former Filmlance International producer Ulf Synnerholm is the new Executive Producer at C More/TV4 since April. 

Synnerholm has worked on major Swedish films and TV series, such as SF Studios’ family franchises Pettson & Findus and The Jerry Maya Detective Agency, and Filmlance’s Arne Dahl crime series.

The hiring of the experienced producer at C More/TV4 is part of Bonnier Broadcasting’s strategy to focus on high quality locally produced content. “Drama series have never before had the lofty status they have today, and we need to capitalise on this,” said Synnerholm.

Johanna Bergenstråhle, Acting Head of Drama at C More /TV4 said. “The recruitment of Ulf enhances our profile and expertise in the acquisition of drama, and brings further valuable industry experience to our drama department.”

Swedish dramas that premiered successfully on the streaming service C More in 2017 include Colin Nutley’s Missing, the thriller Farang starring Ola Rapace, while the Rebecka Martinsson crime show based on Åsa Larsson’s books are enjoying good ratings on TV4. Upcoming new series include Jan Guillou’s Agent Hamilton, the new comedy series Sjölyckan by Felix Herngren and new seasons of Modus, Beck and Ack Värmland.
