Series 5 last for "Rita" Norwegian series.

A Rita Movie Is In The Works With A Game Of Thrones Actor

The film will tide fans over after the finale of the Danish dramedy.

The fifth season of the TV series Rita hits Netflix on Aug. 14, but the Danish dramedy's return to global screens is bittersweet. As the BBC reports, an average of 842,000 people watched the first season when it was released in 2012, and its transfer to the streaming platform turned it into an international sleeper hit, with Netflix even co-producing from season 3. Despite the success of the show, a season 6 of Rita reportedly not in the offing. In May, Danish newspaper B.T. reported that season 5 would be Rita's final season. Citing a statement issued by the TV network, Mille Denisen, the actress who plays Rita, is quoted as saying: "You always have to stop while the game is good, and that's it with Rita."

Series 5 was a wonderful ending to the series. In fact, I think it was one of the best seasons.

Happy to hear we get a bit more in a movie.

Game of Thrones actor Lena Headey will take the lead role. Hope she does it justice. Also hope there will be a return of other characters, Rasmus, Jeppe, Hjørdis etc

I don't know, a lot of time that doesn't work - replacing the main character.

Mille Denisen has a minor role, as the mom, in the movie Copenhagen.
