Tomas Ledins on the recording of "Part of My Heart"

Unable to put away the script

TORSKOG.

The "Mamma Mia" suite attracts a large audience around the world.

At Thorskog Castle, four miles north of Gothenburg, Tomas Ledin follows the recording of "Part of my heart", a jukebox album in the same spirit. Åkerman, Jonas Karlsson and Shima Niavarani revive his classical melodies

– Three, four of the songs I think are much better than the original, ha, says Tomas Ledin at Nöjesblad

made a film based on The songs of Tomas Ledin some of which are customized in Swedish summer, are ideal for making it the hottest summer for hundreds of years.

Halfway through the recording is Tomas Ledin visiting for the first time.

– I was both surprised, flattered and a little hesitant when we presented all the information. I thought, he said.

– Then it appeared a script. I could not put it away from me. As they had enveloped the songs, how they reinforced what was in history

This day takes place at Thorskog Castle in the small village of Torskog in the municipality of Little Edets, about four miles north of Gothenburg.

2009 and the 2010 "Castle Stars" seasons have been recorded here. As Daniel Lind Lagerlöf – received "Miffo" (2003), where Jonas Karlsson had one of the leading roles

Koreography the most difficult challenge

Now he is still there and plays the financial director on a work about to be established in the famous town called Glimmerby. He returns to Isabella, his career in Stockholm

– It becomes a bit chaotic when she comes home, says Hollywood star Malin Åkerman who plays the role.

– It will be the love of developments "Jonas Karlsson

He came closest to a long recording of a crime drama (TV series" Stockholm Requiem "). I think it's fun to do something completely different. Although it is a great challenge to both dance and sing

For this reason, all actors sometimes come out in song, as in the movies "Mamma Mia".

– By far, the choreography is without a doubt. It's an amazing reward when it works, but … I'm probably not the one who will compete directly in "Let's Dance".

Compared to DiCaprio

"Part of my heart" will be the first Swedish Christmas 2019 film. Has a budget of 45 million Swedish kroner. For Malin Åkerman, Swedish, but almost all his life living in North America, it's like a "little independent film".

– Everything is bigger in America But I like that. There is not the same hierarchy, everyone is at the same level. And wonderful people to work with. I did not know Swedish actors too. Jonas Karlsson … he is a bit like Leonardo DiCaprio .

Playing in Swedish is a challenge for her. Even if she does not have a break, she does not always find the right words after a lifetime "there".

– As I said, I think a little more about the statement.

"It is clear that it is staggering."

The film is, as we have said, a romantic comedy

The love triangle is that between Malin Åkermans Isabella, Christian Hillborgs Simon and Shima Niavaranis Molly.

Molly has now retaken Simon but feels threatened when ex-Isabella has returned home. 19659008] Under the scene we follow, Shima and Christian sit in a boat surrounded by swans. Swans are tempted by someone throwing pieces of bread at them. Shima mimes herself in the speakers, to Tomas Ledin's song "Absolutely crazy in you", as she sang earlier.

Swans do not always behave as the film crew wants. Shima has a lot more trouble with the years than playing songs.

Finally, when we leave the site in the media, it will be the biggest song and dance of the film, with a dancer of the 90's choreographed by Söderlundh .

The director of the film is Edward de Sillén . He has a lot of TV experience and backgrounds, but he is a beginner in the field of cinema.

– Clearly, the first film would be such a big production.
