The season starts airing this Friday. For convenience, here are the new faces:
I've already put my money on Unni Lindell, Henrik Farley, and Silya Nymoen as Traitors. Let's see if I nail one this year too!
Came across this while mindlessly looking at a TV guide app that has various Nordic channels not just limited to Norway and it looked awfully familiar...
I previously made a post about the early reveal in a TV promo, but now that they've officially announced it, along with a hi-rez promo image (can you spot a difference by the way?), I figured I might as well post it and the write-up I did (again) sans spoiler tags along with some additional notes and structural adjustments. Enjoy.
Top to bottom: Iben Akerlie (actress and author), Aslak Maurstad (voice actor and gamer) Robert Stoltenberg (comedian), Johan Golden (comedian), and Ulrikke Falch (actress).
Johan Golden has been a longtime collaborator of the king himself Atle Antonsen and the two have had the radio show Misjonen, formerly Kommisjonen before they moved over to a different channel, on air for almost 20 years now so this will be very interesting. My dad noted that "Golden vs. Antonsen could get colorful.".
Robert Stoltenberg has likewise also been a longtime comedian, best known for his comedy show where he plays all the main characters, a schtick that has been long oversaturated by now. He's also written some children's books with his brother and has been in the detective panel of Maskorama (The Masked Singer) for a couple seasons now along with season 8 winner Tete Lidbom. He sadly does have a tendency to get a bit goofy as if we was slipping into a character, making him one of the weakest aspects of it. I do agree with my dad that he could be pretty solid in Kongen Befaler if he's just himself.
Fans of The Traitors will likely recognize two of the others from various seasons of Forræder. Ulrikke Falch (Forræder season 4) is probably best know for starring in the high school drama Skam with season 12 winner Ina Svenningdal. She apparently also starred in season 2 of the show Gym, hosted by Kongen Befaler season 2 alumni Mia Hundvin, which I may have surpressed from my memory. I recall reading an interview from a year or two ago where it said she was studying in Denmark.
Aslak Maurstad (Forræder season 2) is from a family of actors with his brothers Scott and Stinius also being voice actors, though he and Stinius are to a much lesser degree. (Stinius is also a violin player.) He's also a gamer and subtitler for live TV broadcasts, record fast at that. Last year, he hosted Hotellet, apparently an adaptation of a concept called The Fortune Hotel, which was actually a pretty enjoyable if familiar show. As a little fun fact, their mother Mari is a certified Disney voice actor, being the official voice of Daisy Duck and also voicing Huey, Dewey, and Louie in the original DuckTales. Woohoo!
And last but not least is Iben Akerlie who, like Ulrikke Falch, is not the most prolific name but she makes appearences in reality shows and movies from time to time though she's probably most known for writing the children's book Lars is LOL. She's also a very dry and deadpan person. Think of Jenna Ortega's version of Wednesday Addams without a penchant for murder.
