‘Shorta’ Director Anders Ølholm on Casting ‘Game of Thrones’ Star Pilou Asbæk as a Corrupt Cop in Amazon’s First Danish Original ‘Snake Killer’ 

It is a “privilege” for filmmaker Anders Ølholm to helm Amazon MGM Studios’s first Danish original series, “Snake Killer,” released today on Prime Video. The four-episode crime thriller is inspired by real-life events and follows the work of Denmark’s notorious Uropatruljen, a police unit active between 1965 and 2001 and dedicated to curbing drug dealers and gangs in the sprawling capital of Copenhagen. “Snake Killer” stars Pilou Asbæk (“Game of Thrones”) as contentious officer Brian “Smiley” Petersen, with a large ensemble cast featuring Lars Ranthe (“Another Round”), Mira Obling (“Dark Horse”), Joey Moe (“Fugleflugten”) and Ali Al-Bayate (“Sommerdahl”).
