Intense Netflix crime thriller A Nearly Normal Family release date announced

A grippingly intense new Swedish limited series, A Nearly Normal Family, lands on Netflix next month.

The six-parter is based on the highly-regarded novel by Swedish author Mattias Edvardsson, which has been sold in 35 countries worldwide. The book attracted rave reviews across the globe, with many praising it as a taut, psychological thriller and a genuine page-turner.

The tale involves the Sandell family, made up of priest Adam, lawyer Ulrika and their 19-year-old daughter Stella. They live a seemingly perfect life in a polished residential suburb outside of Lund, Sweden. One day, everything changes when Stella ends up in custody, accused of murder. Her devastated parents don’t know what to do. What has happened? They want to help Stella at any cost, but do they really know their daughter? Or each other?”

A Nearly Normal Family stars Alexandra Tyrefors as Stella Sandell, Lo Kauppi as Ulrika Sandell, Björn Bengtsson as Adam Sandell, Christian Fandango Sundgren as Christoffer ‘Chris’ Olsen and Melisa Ferhatovic as Amina Besic. Produced by Sweden's oldest production company Jarowskij, and Anna Sofia Mörck (We Got This), the series is directed by Per Hanefjord (Hamilton), and written by Anna Platt (The Truth Will Out) and Hans Jörnlind (Top Dog).

YouTubers liked the look of the trailer, which you can see above.

What else is coming to Netflix next month?

New four-episode limited series All The Light We Cannot See drops on Netflix on November 2. The highly-anticipated big-budget adaptation of the award-winning novel is shaping up to be something very special indeed. After selling more than 15 million copies worldwide, Anthony Doerr's tale of a blind girl trying to reunite with her father while forging an unlikely friendship with a young Nazi recruit, is brought to the screen by Stranger Things producer Shawn Levy.

Also out next month is a tantalising documentary on Sylvester Stallone,released on November 3. Simply called Sly, it charts the actor's meteoric rise to fame through such silver screen icons as Rocky and Rambo. From underdog to Hollywood legend, it promises to sure pack a punch.

Finally, on November 22 we finally get to see the hotly-anticipated competition reality series Squid Game: The Challenge. Based on the Korean drama megahit, the show pits contestants against each other in a series of tasks familiar to fans of the original programme. Only thankfully not quite as extreme, you'll be pleased to know.
