News on “Call Me Dad” (via Vi Elsker Serier — translated):

The attentive reader will know that already last year we had the comedy series Call Me Dad on the list of series we were looking forward to.

Unfortunately, we have not yet seen the series, but we still allow ourselves to hope that it will see the light of day on Viaplay during 2024 (and the same can be said about the other Danish Viaplay series, Bullshit, which we are also waiting for!).

Call Me Dad was created by the actors Alex Høgh Andersen and Magnus Haugaard, who also play the series' two main roles themselves. The series is about a friendship — a really good one where you have known each other all your life — but with the twist that one friend becomes the romantic partner of the other friend's mother. And what do you do then?

For the conflict-shy Emil (Alex Høgh Andersen), it becomes more than a hypothetical question when he finds out that his best friend, the confident Viktor (Magnus Haugaard), has started dating his mother, Helle (Ellen Hillingsø). From here, everything is turned upside down, and Emil must learn to navigate the new reality, where friendship, as the boys knew it, is seriously put to the test.

The cast also includes Roberta Hilarius Reichhardt, Johanne Milland and Peter Gantzler.

Call Me Dad has not yet been given a premiere date, but the series should land on Viaplay during 2024.

can someone expalin to me what is the entire fuss about with that girl on the premiere?

Roberta Hilarius Reichhardt, the actress who plays Carla (Alex's "mean girlfriend" in Call Me Dad), was left out of the press promo for the series, despite being more relevant to the plot than Johanne's character — who not only attended the press promo, but also got a lot of attention in interviews. Whether Roberta was purposely left out, or had major personal reasons that prevented her from attending, remains unknown. Although, people are noticing some kind of awkwardness between her and Alex during yesterday's premiere.

I think this sums it up. 😊
