Shooting has begun in Warsaw for the next chapter of the iconic series Glina. The co-production from SkyShowtime, TVP and Apple Film will see the legendary drama return to screens for the first time in 17 years, taking viewers back to the capital's streets, where policemen from the Homicide Department of the Warsaw Metropolitan Police have to deal with violent crime and murder, the complexity of human passion and coming face to face with their past.
The new series will see the return of well-known and popular characters, played once again by Maciej Stuhr, Jacek Braciak, Anna Cieślak and Agnieszka Pilaszewska among others. Many new characters will also appear.

We are very happy to continue the story and to be working once again with Władysław Pasikowski—the creator who gave Glina its unique character.
