Created by the International Emmy award-winning writer Giermund Eriksen (Mammon), the gripping second season of the Nordic political thriller Furia makes its exclusive US debut on the Viaplay SVOD channel on Thursday, April 25 with all six episodes available to binge. Expertly directed by Magnus Martens (Banshee, Fear the Walking Dead, The Walking Dead: World Beyond), the six part series stars Pål Sverre Hagen (Exit, War Sailor, Valkyrien), Ine Marie Wilmann (Troll, Exit, War Sailor), and Boryz Szyc (Oscar-nominated Cold War, Detective Frost).

Caught in a web of deception, Ellen is branded as the very enemy she's hunting. She rejoins with the unyielding Asgeir in a race from the Arctic's icy breath to the heartbeats of Budapest and Warsaw, to unravel a deadly plot and clear her tarnished name.

Synopsis: It’s been two years since Ellen and Asgeir stopped the terror attack in Berlin. Ellen is back home caring for her elderly father, while Asgeir and his daughter live in Lofoten in hiding from the relentless and lethal Ziminov. But when a brutal murder leads Ellen and Asgeir to Hungary, they discover that this is part of something much bigger; a plot to tear down the European democracy. With the lives of their loved ones hanging in the balance, Ellen and her uncompromising partner Asgeir are forced into a race against time to foil a new terrorist plot that takes them from the Arctic to Budapest and into the heart of Warsaw.
