The series originally debuted at the Venice Film Festival. When it was first announced, Winding Refn, the filmmaker behind the Pusher trilogy, Drive and The Neon Demon, said, “With Copenhagen Cowboy, I am returning to my past to shape my future by creating a series, an expansion of my constantly evolving alter-egos, now in the form of my young heroine, Miu.”
Winding Refn created and directs what is his first production in his native Denmark in 15 years. Writers are Sara Isabella Jönsson, Johanne Algren and Mona Masri. Cinematographer is award-winning Magnus Nordenhof Jønck who shot Tobias Lindholm’s Oscar-nominated A War.
Copenhagen Cowboy is produced by Lene Børglum and Christina Bostofte Erritzøe and exec produced by Liv Corfixen and Matthew Newman.
