Nordic Entertainment (NENT) Group-owned streamer Viaplay has greenlit an animated series adaptation of children’s books Karma & Jonar, written by a Swedish author under the pseudonym Zelda Falköga.

Produced by Viaplay Studios, Karma & Jonar, set in the fantasy land of Glimeria, will be based on the first book in the series and aimed at kids aged seven to nine.

The eight-part series, which will premiere on the streamer next year, is written by Henrik Ahnborg and directed by Alexander Gustavsson.

Filippa Wallestam, NENT Group chief content officer, said: “The themes and artwork in Zelda Falköga’s books are widely acclaimed and our adaptation aims to capture both fully. Karma and Jonar will be a fantastic showcase for Viaplay Studios’ world-class storytelling and technical capabilities.”
