“Sometimes you have to do painful things for you family.” Netflix has revealed the trailer for Billionaire Island, a dark comedy series streaming this fall on Netflix worldwide. It’s the latest Netflix series creation from the same creators of “Lilyhammer”. Julie Lange, the head of Marlax, plans a hostile takeover of a local competitor to become the world’s largest salmon producer. Billionaire Island is about the rivalry between two families, pitting old traditions against new (wealth) ambitions. It’s about two families in a small coastal community in Norway who are sworn enemies in the global salmon industry. The series is shot at the island of Frøya, Trøndelag, and depicts Norway’s much-talked about and major fish farming industry in a new and humorous way. Trine Wiggen leads the cast as a ruthless owner of a Norwegian fish farming company who plans a hostile takeover of her local rival in order to become the world’s largest salmon producer. The series also stars Bjarne Brøndbo, Ragne Grande, Svein Roger Karlsen, Kåre Conradi, Oddgeir Thune, Axel Bøyum, Manish Sharma, Frank Kjosås, and Bjørn Sundquist. This looks so kooky and totally crazy, doesn’t just look like a drama, looks like a full-on dark comedy satire about how nuts rich people are. // Continue Reading ›
