Norwegian actor Kristofer Hivju hopes audiences โขwill recognize a cautionary โคtale embedded within the action of skyshowtime’s newโฃ thriller, “The Iris Affair,” premiering December 6th.While โthe series unfolds against theโค backdrop of sunny Italy, โฃHivju’s character navigates darker,โ more โฃominous environments, reflecting a core message about โฃcontemporary anxieties.Hivju โarticulated that the series operates โon multiple levels: a fast-paced “cat-adn-mouse”โ thriller and a broader โwarning about present-day fears. He believes viewers should leave withโ an understanding of the show’s layeredโค narrative and, โperhaps โsurprisingly, a desire to visit Italy. “After watchingโค this series,โค you go to Italy,” Hivju โstated.
The actor emphasizedโ theโ series’ complexity, notingโ its ability to function as both an engaging hunt and โฃaโ relevant commentaryโฃ on societal vulnerabilities. Heโ hopes the โฃaudience will take away three things:โฃ the series’ multi-layeredโ nature,itsโ warning about what “we should be afraid of,” and โฃthe inspiration to travel โขto Italy.
