This isn’t the first time that Astrid Lindgren’s novel has been turned into a TV series. In 1984, a series was produced based on the film from 1983. But now, after 37 years, a completely new version will be produced.
“Ronja” follows the adventures of a girl born into a gang of thieves in a medieval Scandinavian castle. As Ronja grows up, she discovers that the surrounding forest can be a magical, and sometimes dangerous, place filled with strange creatures.
Among Astrid Lindgren’s best-known books, Runja Roverdetter is also one of the world’s best-selling and translated authors with more than 75 published books.
In addition to “Ronja Røverdatter”, Astrid Lindgren made “Pippi Longstocking”, “Emil in Lønneberget” and “Children from Bråkmakergata”.
