GREENLit, MIA’s event dedicated to upcoming international series and one of the flagship events of the market’s Drama/Television programme, offers an exclusive showcase for previewing some of the most anticipated titles in scripted series and streaming. The selected titles will be presented by producers, cast and creative teams together with the platforms and broadcasters that commissioned them, providing a deeper look at the stories, creative visions and paths that brought these series from development to screen.
From Italy comes the highly anticipated and already iconic Gucci. Fine dei Giochi, offering a new perspective on the rise and self-destruction of the fashion dynasty that transformed a small Italian shop into a global empire. Created and directed by Gabriele Muccino, who also co-wrote the series with Isabella Aguilar and Flaminia Gressi, the story is told through the eyes of Allegra and her mother, Patrizia Reggiani: twenty-one years after being convicted of commissioning the murder of Maurizio Gucci, Patrizia makes a shocking confession, but Allegra is convinced she is lying to protect the real people responsible. A gripping family saga of power, fame, betrayal and revenge, the series is produced by Sky Italia and by Serena Sostegni, Andrea Occhipinti, Stefano Massenzi and Lorenzo Gangarossa for Lucky Red, and distributed internationally by STUDIOCANAL. The cast includes Miriam Leone (Patrizia Reggiani), Francesco Scianna (Maurizio Gucci) and Matilda Lutz (Allegra Gucci).
From Belgium comes Metamorphoses, the new series by acclaimed director Jaco Van Dormael, the visionary filmmaker behind Mr. Nobody and The Brand New Testament. Mixing mystery, fantasy and surreal elements with Van Dormael’s unmistakable poetic and magical style, the series follows fifteen-year-old Daphne, who discovers she can hear the voice of a murdered woman and uncovers an archive preserving the voices — and final memories — of victims who disappeared over a fifteen-year period. The series is commissioned by Arte France in collaboration with ZDF/ARTE. Written by Michael De Cock, Hasse Steenssens and Jaco Van Dormael, Metamorphoses is produced by Helena Vlogaert for Caviar.
From the United Kingdom comes The Postman, a spy thriller created through a collaboration between ZDF Studios and British production company BlackBox Multimedia, led by Chiara Cardoso. Filmed in Rome and various locations across Lazio in summer 2026, the series moves between a sleepy English village and the Italian criminal underworld, following a seemingly unremarkable British postman who unexpectedly finds himself at the centre of an international conflict between intelligence services while simply trying to deliver a letter. Written by Matt Mitchell and Vicki Sargent and directed by Steve Hughes, The Postman is produced by Erika Hossington, with Chiara Cardoso and Daniela Guarnaccia serving as executive producers for BlackBox Multimedia. International sales are handled by ZDF Studios. The cast includes British actors Mark Addy (The Full Monty, Game Of Thrones, Robin Hood), Amy-Leigh Hickman (You, EastEnders, Industry) and Michael Jibson (The Crown, Les Misérables, Bodies, The Essex Serpent), while the Italian cast features Gaia Scodellaro, Giuseppe De Domenico and Alessandro Fella.
Finally, from Sweden, one of European crime fiction’s most iconic detectives returns for a new generation. Through a contemporary perspective on the universe created by Henning Mankell, Wallander reinterprets the legendary Nordic noir brand for today’s audience, with acclaimed Swedish actor Gustaf Skarsgård (Oppenheimer, Vikings, Westworld) in the lead role, almost twenty years after playing a young Wallander in The Pyramid. Combining gripping investigations with a strong emotional dimension, the series follows a more complex and vulnerable Kurt Wallander as he faces the brutal pressures of police work while his private life falls apart, confronting issues including racism, youth crime and loneliness. Written by Antonia Pyk, Josefin Johansson and Jörgen Bergmark, the series is produced by Glenn Lund for Jarowskij/Yellow Bird, in collaboration with TV4, Banijay Rights, ARD Degeto, Film i Skåne and Ystad Österlen Filmfond.
