Netflix's German period suspense drama officially begins filming

Netflix has confirmed that a new German period suspense drama has started filming.The project is still using a working title, and a reliable Chinese title has not yet been announced.Known information shows that the series has a total of six episodes. The story is set in Berlin in 1899. The protagonist is a young woman who escaped from a serial killer.

After the incident, she did not receive a timely response from the authorities, so she teamed up with her friends and a young police detective to track down the murderer.The brief introduction given by the producer only explained this line of investigation. It did not announce the final truth of the case, nor did it explain in advance the ending of the characters.The series will put the streets and social environment of Berlin at that time into the suspense story.

The project is led by Hanno Hackfort, Richard Kropf and Bob Konrad, who also participated in screenwriting work, and Malina Nwabuonwor also serves as screenwriter.The three have previously collaborated on the Netflix series Kleo, and this time they will switch from a palace period drama to an urban crime story at the end of the 19th century.

Filming has already been completed on a sequence in Görlitz.The city has preserved relatively complete historical districts and was therefore chosen as a stand-in for Berlin at the end of the 19th century.After the outdoor scenes, the crew moved to Berlin and Brandenburg areas, and planned to continue filming until winter.The producers did not announce a specific completion date.

Art is by Isabel von Forster, costume design is by Gabriela Reumer, and hair and makeup are by Uta Spikermann and Grit Kosse.For a drama set in 1899, costumes, street scenes and interior furnishings are already disclosed production focuses, and these departments will work together to complete the period texture.

Jan Wünschmann and Jörg Engels serve as executive producers, and Malin Krüger serves as producer.Netflix has confirmed the main cast, but except for the three core characters, the corresponding relationships between other actors and characters have not been fully explained to the public.The project has just entered the filming stage, and actor information will continue to be updated.

Reports speculate that, taking into account winter shooting and post-production workload, the series is more likely to be released to audiences at the end of 2027.However, this is not the official launch date announced by Netflix.What can be confirmed right now is that filming has started, the story location and basic character relationships, as well as the six-episode length arrangement.

The news that the show has started filming also shows that Netflix continues to invest in local production in Germany.For viewers who like period suspense themes, what is worth paying attention to in the future is the cast and role list, official posters and online plans.Before the platform announces a reliable Chinese name, relevant Chinese reports will focus on the project background and production progress.

The three central characters in the project are a young woman who escaped death, her best friend and a young police detective.The three of them started investigating together, which is the clearest line of action in the story summary so far.Details of the case and the background of the remaining characters have not been officially announced by the platform.

The crew has finished filming the first segment in Görlitz and has moved work to Berlin and Brandenburg.Production will continue into winter, and the platform has not yet released an official poster, trailer or launch date.
