On Wednesday, the cast of Apple TV+’s series “Constellation” attended the streaming service’s TCA Winter Press Tour to talk about its Feb 21 premiere. Some great pictures from both the panel and editorial outtakes have been added. You can also listen to Noomi talking about her favorite Portobello locations in the Time Out London podcast Love Thy Neighborhood – very recommended.

The promotion for “Constellation” has been launched yesterday with a photocall in Los Angeles. The series’ stars – Noomi Rapace, James D’Arcy, William Catlett and Jonathan Banks were all in attendance and spent the day giving interviews. Most of these press junket interviews should be released in the next couple of days. Pictures from the photocall have been added to the photo gallery.

Apple TV+ released the first trailer for its upcoming sci-fi limited series Constellation which has some auspices that are sure to excite genre TV fans. The project stars Noomi Rapace and Emmy nominee Jonathan Banks and is from “Wallander” writer Peter Harness. Emmy winner Michelle MacLaren directs. Rapace stars as Jo – “an astronaut who returns to Earth after a disaster in space – only to discover that key pieces of her life seem to be missing. The action-packed space adventure is an exploration of the dark edges of human psychology, and one woman’s desperate quest to expose the truth about the hidden history of space travel and recover all that she has lost.” The eight-part series also stars James D’Arcy, Julian Looman, William Catlett and Barbara Sukowa. Constellation premieres with its first three episodes on Feb. 21 on Apple TV+.

Apple TV+ has started airing promotional spots for the upcoming “Constellation” during its programs, so we can expect a first trailer being shown online very soon ahead of the series’ February 21 release. So far, a first key art has been released as well as a new production still featuring Noomi, whose character, astronaut Jo, will be the central character of the series.

Happy New Year everybody. While we’re patiently waiting for Apple TV starting promotion for Noomi’s new television series “Constellation” next month, let’s move along in updating the site’s archives. Additional public appearances pictures from 2011 have been added to the photo gallery – an exciting year in Noomi’s career with her first international production “Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows”, critical success with “Babycall”, for which she won Best Actress at the Rome International Film Festival. For a complete list of all updates, have a look at the list below. Enjoy the new additions.

Apple TV+ today shared the first images from “Constellation,” a new eight-part, conspiracy-based psychological thriller drama starring Noomi Rapace and Emmy Award nominee Jonathan Banks. Created and written by Peter Harness, also starring James D’Arcy, Julian Looman, William Catlett, Barbara Sukowa and introducing Rosie and Davina Coleman as Alice. Directed by Emmy Award winner Michelle MacLaren, Oscar nominee Oliver Hirschbiegel and Oscar nominee Joseph Cedar, “Constellation” will make its global debut with the first three episodes on Wednesday, February 21, 2024 on Apple TV+, followed by one episode weekly through March 27.

“Constellation” stars Rapace as Jo — an astronaut who returns to Earth after a disaster in space — only to discover that key pieces of her life seem to be missing. The action-packed space adventure is an exploration of the dark edges of human psychology, and one woman’s desperate quest to expose the truth about the hidden history of space travel and recover all that she has lost.

Produced by Turbine Studios and Haut et Court TV, the series is executive produced by David Tanner, Tracey Scoffield, Caroline Benjo, Simon Arnal, Carole Scotta and Justin Thomson. MacLaren directs the first two episodes and executive produces with Rebecca Hobbs and co-executive producer Jahan Lopes for MacLaren Entertainment. Harness executive produces through Haunted Barn Ltd. The series was shot principally in Germany and was series produced by Daniel Hetzer for Turbine Studios, Germany.

For the October 2023 issue of the Swedish Nuda Paper (a biannual hardcover publication), Icelandic poet, novelist, and lyricist Sjón and Noomi Rapace join for a discussion on the complexity of the human species and its most salient features. A wide-ranging interivew accompanied by a fantastic new editorial featuring Noomi. Drawing from memories of their Icelandic childhood and recent experiences with their surroundings, Sjón and Rapace highlight the meaningful influence that an innate connection with nature has had on how they think of life. As they investigate the links between human evolution and climate change, the conversation rapidly turns into a call to action to denounce the abuses inflicted on the most fragile, animals and humans alike. From the necessity to take control of our competitiveness to the disillusionment with today’s materialistic system, the two pinpoint the perks and flaws of what being human entails while stressing the urge to go back to our most genuine essence. The article can be read on the Nuda Paper website, the hardcover can be ordered in their shop.

With nothing happening in the present, let’s take another deep dive into the past: Several articles and interviews from Icelandic outlets have been added, all covering Noomi’s breakthrough role with the “Millennium” trilogy and her move to Hollywood. Included are some great cover stories and rare pictures from that time. Enjoy the new addtions.

After having completed Noomi’s recent TV tenure on “Django”, I have spent some more time researching her previous tv work – which proves a difficult task since most of Noomi’s early work on Swedish television has never been released on DVD or has been shown outside of Sweden. But, I was successful in finding additional promotional stills for “Tre Kronor” and “Stora Teatern”, as well as screencaptures and videos from the 2007 drama series “Labyrint”, for which Noomi also participated in so-called mobisodes – short extras to the general episodes which were exclusively shown online. Those can be now found in the video archive, all courtesy cinematographer Alex Linden’s Vimeo page. All photo updates can be found below. Enjoy.

Most of us have probably first seen Noomi in the spectacular “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo”, the first in Stieg Larsson’s “Millennium” book series that was planned to feature 10 volumes, but was cut short after Larsson’s death and three and a half books. Back then, David Lagercrantz was commissioned to carry the series forward and wrote a further three volumes. Now, Karin Smirnoff, a successful journalist and novelist in her own right, has instigated a planned further trilogy. “The Girl in The Eagle’s Talons” reintroduces us to damaged hacker, and now businesswoman Salander, and her friend and occasional lover Blomkvist. The action largely takes place in Norrland County in the north of Sweden. Salander has travelled north to come to the aid of her niece Svala, whose mother has gone missing. Blomkvist, dispirited by the end, after 31 years, of his beloved print magazine ‘Millennium’, and its conversion into a podcast, is in the area because his daughter Pernilla is marrying local politician and businessman Henry Salo. The untapped natural resources of Sweden’s far north have begun to attract the attention of various multinational companies, eager to cash in. The area has become something of a new Klondyke. There are people who are not willing to leave their homes to facilitate the construction of giant wind farms and people who are not willing to accept such refusals. There have been many disappearances of young immigrant women in the area. You can read more about the book over here. As we know, Rapace’s Salander time has been finished with the film trilogy, but I think we all still enjoy a good Salander sleuthing.
