Get ready for the all-new Agent Hamilton series (premiering March 30th) by catching up on some of the Swedish superspy’s past adventures!


Jakob Oftebro (1864) stars as Swedish superspy Carl Hamilton in a new ten-part series inspired by the novels of author and journalist Jan Guillou. Guillou published his first Hamilton novel back in 1986, and the books have been adapted into many movies and TV series over the years. Before watching the brand-new series, you might enjoy binge-watching these classic Hamilton stories starring some of our favorite actors–

Peter Haber (Beck) stars as Swedish super-spy Carl Hamilton in this adaptation of Guillou’s novel “Fiendens fiende” from 1990. Vintage Cold War drama circa 1990 (think John le Carré meets 007) shot on location in Moscow. Each episode features specially-filmed video introductions by the author.

Mikael Persbrandt in Hamilton

These are the Mikael Persbrandt movies from 2012. More influenced by the Jason Bourne flicks than by Guillou’s original stories – but slickly-shot and a lot of fun.

Stefan Sauk stars in this 1995 Swedish-Italian co-production, which follows Hamilton as he takes on the Sicilian Mafia. If Peter Haber is the suave James Bond of the Hamilton series and Persbrandt is the Jason Bourne, then Sauk’s is a ’70s-style Clint Eastwood/Charles Bronson vigilante portrayal. Gritty and intense. Fans of The Octopus will recognize many of the supporting actors.
