Stream Face to Face now on Viaplay.

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Face to Face, or Forhøret, is a Danish crime series coming to the US thanks to the streaming service Viaplay. It’s a unique take on the genre that sets it completely apart from crime procedurals in the US; each episode of Face to Face is essentially a one-on-one interrogation, with its protagonist attempting to get to the bottom of a brutal murder.

I was thinking, “Could we in any way do a show where we take away all the unnecessary ornamentation and just focus [and elaborate] on what's really great?” Which is basically the interaction and the meeting between two great characters. From there, [I thought], “It's always nice if it's wrapped up in some kind of mystery case.” If somebody has been killed, with the streamers and the broadcasters, that gives you a lot of headroom to do other stuff.

I know this third season is standalone, in a way, and then each episode is so unique and so very much itself. Is there a challenge, as either a writer or director, to make sure that things don't feel too fragmented? Christoffer Boe: This is very character [and] actor driven, so there's a lot of dialogue. The whole technicality is just making it work and talking through the dialogue. I write the final scripts with the actors in mind. Basically, I have somebody in mind when I write the first draft, but in some instances it doesn't all work out so another actor will actually take the role. Then, [for] the final shooting script, I'll make sure that it really works with that specific actor in mind.
