.RydingEdvin and OmarRudberg weigh in on Wilmon's fate 👀 (Spoilers ahead, ofc!)
connected with Edvin and Omar over Zoom, and later, the creator and head writer Lisa Ambjörn, to chat all things, and the first thing to know about this show is that sexuality is not the conflict. “A message we’ve constantly been trying to prove [is] that Wilhelm’s problem isn’t that he’s in love with a boy.
Playing the secret love of a Swedish prince has in turn been a dream come true, something Omar admits would never happen in his own life. “It's something that means a lot to people, I would say, because it shows it doesn't matter what your sexuality is, it doesn't matter what class you are, it doesn't matter where you're from, it doesn't matter — nothing — love is love basically.
Omar is no stranger to singing; he spent several years in Swedish boy band FO&O before going solo in 2018. I ask him if Simon’s performance was a special moment for him, years on from being the only immigrant kid in the school, singing a love song in a language that he once didn’t know. Edvin pouts at this, clutching his heart. “Everything about this whole thing is a moment for me,” Omar says.
Karin Boye, the aforementioned poet and novelist, serves a great purpose for Ambjörn this season. She shows me a screenshot from an old conversation in which she asked her friends which Swedish historical writers should be studied at Hillerska. Boye ascended to the top of the list. Boye’s book; protagonist Malin navigates the clash between her religious faith and rising feelings for her female classmate, Siv.
