Kenneth Branagh, who played Gilderoy Lockhart in
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, is set to team up with the BBC for the production of a series of three films based on Henning Mankell's best-selling Wallander crime novels.
Quote:
"Wallander is a wonderfully complex and compelling character and I am excited to be playing this fascinatingly flawed but deeply human detective."

"This is more than just a detective series. It's fantastic drama, great stories and an absolutely beautiful setting," Andy Harries, head of newly founded production company Left Bank Pictures, told Broadcast.
"Visually these films are going to be very strong, very picture postcard. Ken Branagh is perfect for the title role," he added.
