Swedish Dicks is an American-Swedish comedy web television series created by Glenn Lund and Peter Stormare (as Viking Brothers), Peter Settman and Andrew Lowery. The plot follows two unlicensed Swedish private investigators trying to make a living in Los Angeles. It premiered on September 2, 2016 via Swedish online streaming service Viaplay as its first original production. In the United States, it is scheduled to premiere in early 2017, as well as being distributed worldwide by American network Lionsgate TV. In October 2016, the series was renewed for a second season.
A former stuntman Ingmar Andersson (Peter Stormare) works as a private investigator in Los Angeles. His life is intervened by a struggling DJ, Axel Kruse (Johan Glans). After giving up his DJ career, he decides to join Ingmar and becomes a partner of his detective firm "Swedish Dick" (now "Swedish Dicks"). Together, they solve various cases, as well as compete with Ingmar's long-time rival and owner of the best investigating company in Los Angeles, Jane McKinney (Traci Lords). Axel is also trying to discover Ingmar's past and the circumstances of his retirement from stunt performing.
Peter Stormare came up with the concept for Swedish Dicks in 2014. He began writing the script for what was intended to become a one-hour drama. When he showed the script to Peter Settman, he suggested that it would be better as a series. The series was first announced in November 2015 with Peter Stormare and Johan Glans as confirmed cast. In March 2016, it was announced that Keanu Reeves and Traci Lords had joined the show. Lords described Jane as "the kind of a woman who likes to play with men and use her femininity. At the same time, she believes that she definitely has the biggest dick in the room."
