SkyShowtime today revealed the premiere date and key art for its latest six-part Polish Original production Langer. The first two episodes will debut on the service in Poland on 22 May, with subsequent episodes being made available weekly.
Langer is a six-episode thriller featuring Jakub Gierszał as Piotr Langer, a young and dashing businessman who inherited a financial holding company from his tragically deceased father. In his spare time, Piotr indulges in his longtime passion - he is an elusive serial killer who has been pursued unsuccessfully by prosecutors for years.
One day a stunning woman, Nina, appears in his life, and in order to attract Langer's attention and get closer to him, she shows up at his charity gala. Soon after, she becomes involved in a dangerous game and a relationship with Langer, which doesn't make it any easier for her to uncover evidence that he is a serial killer. Will justice prevail this time...?
In addition to Jakub Gierszał, the series will feature Julia Pietrucha (Blondynka) as Nina Pokora, Magdalena Boczarska (The Art of Loving: The Story of Michalina Wisłocka) in the role of prosecutor Karolina 'Siarki' Siarkowska, who is pursuing Langer, as well as Piotr Adamczyk (Women of Mafia 2), who plays prosecutor Olgierd 'Paderborn' Paderewski.
Other roles include Kamil Nożyński (Blinded by the Light), Mila Jankowska (25 Years of Innocence: The Case of Tomek Komenda), Karol Pocheć (Zatoka szpiegów), Piotr Rogucki (Wróbel) and Mateusz Kościukiewicz (Mug).
Langer is the latest SkyShowtime Original series in Poland; the service has been consistently expanding its catalogue of local titles since launching two years ago. It is an adaptation of a popular novel by Remigiusz Mróz, one of Poland's most widely read authors. The series is produced by Violetta Furmaniuk-Zaorska (The Behaviorist, The Disappearance) and directed by Łukasz Palkowski (Bogowie, The Disappearance). Katarzyna Górtat-Rzepka (Archivist, Overheard Murder) and Piotr Rzepka (Archivist, Wilderness) are responsible for the screenplay. The cinematographer is Marian Prokop, music is composed by Bartosz Chajdecki.
