‘Medieval’ – Cinematography by Jesper Tøffner

Jesper Tøffner is the Director of Photography on the historical epic 'Medieval', starring Ben Foster, Michael Caine and Danish Roland Møller and many more. The world premiere of 'Medieval' will take place today on September 5th in Prague.

Inspired by the true story of Jan Žižka, one of greatest warriors in history. After the death of its reigning emperor, the Holy Roman Empire is plummeting into chaos while feuding brothers King Wenceslas of Czech and King Sigismund of Hungary battle for control of the empty throne. Daring and righteous mercenary leader Jan Žižka (Ben Foster) is hired by Lord Boresh (Michael Caine) to kidnap the powerful Lord Rosenberg's (Til Schweiger) fiancée, Lady Katherine (Sophie Lowe), to prevent Rosenberg's rise to power alongside the corrupt King Sigismund. As Katherine becomes caught in a dangerous political game between the monarchs, Jan falls in love with her strong spirit and dedication to saving the people. In a brave attempt to liberate her, he fights back with a rebel army to battle the corruption, greed, and betrayal rampant amongst those clawing for power. Jan now realizes that the fate of the Empire will be decided by his love for Lady Katherine and that his fate doesn’t lie in the hands of Kings, but in the hands of his own people.

“Jan Žižka is a story about the birth of a warlord, and I think people will be surprised by the way it is conceived. The story plays out in 1402 during Žižka’s youth before the Hussite Wars. It has everything one needs to know about that time period to understand it. The film also features plenty of fighting, but above all a very strong story that takes you on a ride to the very end.” says the director Petr Jákl.

Aske Bang er med i ny sæson af seersuccesen Badehotellet

Den, for mange danskere, velkendte historie om det vestjyske badehotel, fortsætter med både uhygge og amoriner i luften, når nye karakterer, byder på nye fortællinger.

Krigen er kommet til Danmark og selv på Andersens lille Badehotel, får man hurtigt besættelsens konsekvenser at føle. Året er 1940 og der er indført kørselsforbud for alle private bilister, så hotellet er i tvivl om der overhovedet kommer gæster denne sommer. Men man skal ikke stå i vejen for danskernes foretrukne feriesteder, så inden længe, bliver huset fyldt. Blandt de besøgende er dog også tyskerne. De begynder stille at sætte krav, som sætter hotellet overfor en række svære valg.

Mens man kan gyse over tyskernes indtog, kan man som seer også glæde sig over flere nye karakterer. Blandt dem er den gode politibetjent Folmer Gregersen, spillet af Troels Malling. Som tro betjent til staten, følger han regeringens eksempel og lever, så vidt muligt, i fredelig sameksistens med den ny besættelsesmagt. Det får ham dog ikke til at fravige hans ansvar som fungerende betjent og han stræber derfor altid efter at være danskernes beskytter i den svære tid.

Trods krigen, er der også stadig plads til lidt sommerflirt. På Frighs Tobakfabrik har en ung og charmerende københavner fået arbejde. Han er 22 år, hedder Jan Larsen og bliver spillet af Aske Bang. Jan er en fri sjæl, kommunist og en ordentlig hovedpine for fabrikkens forvalter, som må beklage sig til direktørens kone. Direktørens datter derimod, bliver helt anderledes interesseret i den unge Jan fra København. Hun er selv vant til de samme rutiner, traditioner og destinationer og ser en eventyrlyst i Jan, som hun ønsker at udforske.

Badehotellet er blevet til en af de helt store seersucceser i Danmark. Siden seriens start, har danskerne siddet klistret til skærmen og da den forrige og sjette sæson fik premiere, slog serien sin egen rekord hvor intet mindre end 1.589.000 danskere så med.

Den 27. Januar 2020 får syvende sæson af Badehotellet premiere. Den kan ses på TV2 og TV2 PLAY.

---------------------------------------

Aske Bang are in the new season of the hit series, Badehotellet.

The popular Danish series will soon premiere their newest season, presenting new characters who will bring stories of both love and war.

The War has entered through the borders of Denmark, and even in the small seaside hotel, Andersen’s Badehotel, the consequences of wartime is evident. The year is 1940 and a ban on private driving has been introduced. This worries the hotel owner, Amanda, who, having recently bought the hotel, worries if any guests will actually then show up. However, this popular holiday spot cannot be resisted and soon regulars, as well as new faces, show up at the hotel. Among the new, are the German soldiers. They are setting a list of demands for the hotel to uphold, and Amanda is now faced with new dilemmas and choices.

There are also some of the new characters, that are easier to grow fond of. One of them is the police officer, Folmer Gregersen, played by Troels Malling. Being a law abiding citizen, he follows the government in acting out his duties peacefully, although side by side of the Nazi soldiers. Still though, Folmer sees himself as a defender of the Danish people, and takes this responsibility very seriously.

Even in wartime, there can be room for a summer romance. On the local Frigh’s Tobacco Factory, a new, young cityboy was recently employed. His name is Jan Larsen and he is played by Aske Bang. Jan is a freespirited guy, he’s a communist and he’s a giant headache for the Factory manager, who goes to the director’s wife to complain. The director’s daughter, however, is intrigued by this new kid in town. She is used to the same routines, traditions and destinations, but in Jan she sees a sense of adventure, that she herself has been longing to unfold.

Badehotellet has through all its’ seasons, been a giant success. Since the beginning, the Danish viewers has been glued to the screen and at the last seasons’ premiere, it beat its own record of no less than 1.589.000 viewers.

The seventh season will premiere on january 27th on the Danish TV2 and can be streamed at TV2 PLAY.

Aske Bang med i DR3 nye serie Doggystyle

I serien der er skrevet og instrueret af det nye talent Anna Emma Haudal medvirker Aske Bang i rollen som sig selv, som hovedpersonen Astas usympatiske og ubehagelig bolleven.

Soundvenue mener at “Doggystyle er et stykke uundværligt ungdomsfiktion fra allerøverste DR3-hylde, og i Haudals nænsomt bevidste instruktørhænder bliver Astas retur til provinsen en konstant vedkommende, men på intet tidspunkt pædagogisk fortælling, hvor spejleffekten er påfaldende præcis.”

Se serien på DR3 og DR TV fra 11. nov. 2018.

TV-serien Perfekte Steder handler om Tobias og Rose der falder pladask for hinanden på trods af store modsætninger.

I tre sæsoner følger vi deres op- og nedture, og hvorvidt man kan få det til at fungere, når den ene part foretrækker jakkesættet, mens den anden helst trækker i spraglede outfits. Alt imens følger vi også vennegruppen, herunder kæresteparret Alex og MM portrætteret af Aske Bang og Sophie-Marie Jeppesen, der gerne kaster sig ud i store fællesprojekter, selvom de fra tid til anden kæmper med fristelser uden for forholdet.

Serien er skrevet af Mikael Wullf og har fået flere gode anmeldelser med på vejen. Blandt andet af Kultbox og filmmagasinet EKKO, hvor sidstnævnte i en anmeldelse skriver om Aske Bang og hans fiktive partner:

”Aske Bang og Sophie-Marie Jeppesen giver serien liv og charme som det friske livsglade par Alex og MM”

Perfekter Steder består af tre sæsoner, hvoraf den sidste og afsluttende sæson blev sendt i 2019. På rollelisten ses også blandt andre Gustav Dyekjær Giese og Sarah Hjort Ditlevsen.

In the story, we also follow the couple’s group of friends, including Alex and MM, portrayed by Aske Bang and Sophie-Marie Jeppesen. They are the couple who engages in big common couple-projects, happy, but still somehow struggling with temptations outside the relationship.
