Daniél Espinosa and Ronnie Sandahl Team Up for Swedish Netflix Series the Helicopter Heist

Netflix today announced The Helicopter Heist, a Swedish reality-based and character-driven suspense series in eight parts about the secret drama behind one of the most spectacular heists in history. The limited series is based on Jonas Bonnier's novel "The Helicopter Heist", adapted to the screen by creator Ronnie Sandahl and directed by Daniél Espinosa.

One early September morning in 2009, eyes from around the world turn to an inconspicuous Stockholm suburb. A helicopter has landed on the roof of the country's safest cash depot, and the police can only watch as the robbers disappear along with several million dollars. Not a single shot is fired. The Helicopter Heist is a feverish and absurd story of betrayal and vindication, of fear and fatherhood. But maybe most of all: a grand and fast-paced Icarus tale about winning or losing it all.

Ronnie Sandahl, creator, says: "I want to tell an epic robbery tale, about great dreams and even greater risks. A feverish, character-driven heist show about friendship, adrenaline, and hubris. I can't imagine a more perfect director for the series than Daniel Espinosa, and I'm incredibly happy that he's chosen to step aboard."

The Helicopter Heist will be Daniél Espinosa's TV directorial debut. He says: "I have followed and been fascinated by this story ever since it happened. When the opportunity presented itself to do it in a way that does it justice, with Ronnie and Netflix and the entire crew behind it, it was an offer I couldn't refuse."

The series is based on Jonas Bonnier's "The Helicopter Heist" and produced by Johannes Åhlund for B-Reel Films. Executive producers are Ulf Synnerholm, Fredrik Heinig, Ronnie Sandahl, Niclas Salomonsson, and Jonas Bonnier.
