"Eagles 2022 – Everything about the final season"

This is a translation of a Swedish blog post which you can find here. I don't know if this is an SVT-approved article, but it basically recaps the plot points from last season and gives a run-down of what will be explored in season 4.

Most of it aligns with the season 4 episode descriptions but also confirms additional details, so if you'd rather go in blind when the season premieres I would ignore this post!

At the end of the article I've written a short paragraph of my personal thoughts.

Friday the 28th of January is the premiere of the fourth and final season of Eagles on SVT Play. The final season will touch on how to take command of your own life, orthorexia, and what to do when the life you've gotten used to is shaken up and a new chapter begins. Who gets their dreams fulfilled? Who was shot on New Year's Eve? And will Ludde and Felicia have a happy ending?

The synopsis for Eagles season 4

The last semester of high school has begun and everything should be fantastic. However, the characters are instead faced with transformative events and life choices. Felicia (Alva Bratt) is in rehab after her suicide attempt and she just wants to focus on her well-being and graduate. But the person she needs the most to be able to move on is not there. For Ludvig (Adrian Öjvindsson), the weight of the shooting between Jack (Filip Wolfe Sjunnesson) and his brother Andreas (Oskar Laring) weighs heavy on his shoulders.

Amie (Yandeh Sallah) tries to find the balance between her music career and just being herself. But her record label has completely different plans in mind. Amie and Elias (Edvard Olsson) are also at the beginning of their relationship, but Elias has a completely different focus. He trains manically, keeps a strict diet, and is completely engrossed in achieving his hockey dreams. Whatever it may cost.

Klara (Sarah Gustafsson) feels like she carries the whole of Oskarshamn on her shoulders. The GECED company will be closed down and a large portion of the jobs in town will disappear. Now it's up to Klara to prevent that.

Eagles has been, and will also end, as a drama series about the life choices and emotions teenagers experience. Among these things are first love, friendships, betrayal, and dreams about the future.

SVT Play Friday 28 January at 02.00. The episodes are published in pairs every Friday.

For those who missed the three previous seasons, or want to catch up before the premiere, the episodes can be watched on SVT Play.

There's a lot to unpack here, so I'll just go in chronological order and try to keep my thoughts brief.

First off, if the information in this article is accurate, that means the writers are actually going for an eating disorder storyline with Elias. We knew they were doing something with Elias as we had one scene of him overworking himself in the gym and another scene with Mats commenting on the fact that Elias mostly consumes powdered nutrients instead of real food.

I think a storyline like this has potential to really educate the audience. First off, orthorexia nervosa isn't something that's seen that often on TV. On top of that it's even more rare to show a male character with an eating disorder. I'm really interested to see how this will play out, maybe with the focus shifting a little from Felicia's mental health to instead focus on Elias's which has mostly been a question mark throughout the first three seasons.

Speaking of Felicia, the article mentions that she's out of rehab and that the person she needs the most isn't there. This could be either Ludde or Elias, but I'm leaning more towards Elias since he's her brother. Based on the episode descriptions we also know that when Felicia gets home from rehab, Elias is supposedly out partying.

They're keeping the details on the Andreas and Jack situation pretty hush-hush, but that's understandable.

As I've speculated before, Amie and Elias are probably heading for a rough patch now that we know Elias's focus lies more with his training.

This article also confirms that the GECED company is shutting down, but we'll see Klara try to prevent that.

The last thing I'd like to comment on is the cast list. Pretty standard, right? I'm not so sure. After listing the five main characters, there's an additional name wedged between Klara and Andreas (both pretty major characters). That name is Naima, played by an actress called Tina Pour Davoy. It seems that she'll have a significant role to play if she's included in the cast list. Just what that might be remains to be seen.

If you guys have any theories on what this might bring to the table in season 4, I'm very eager to hear them!

The filming of Eagles has started in Oskarshamn (translated transcript of a radio interview with Adrian Öjvindsson, Maria Alm Norell, and Stefan H. Lindén)

Interviewer: Here in Oskarshamn the filming of Eagles is taking place, for young adults, which is filmed during seven weeks here in Oskarshamn and will air on SVT in spring.

Stefan (in the background): Let's go... Now!

Maria: How's it going? You look down.

Adrian (sighs): No, no it's nothing.

Stefan: Thank you!

Interviewer: Here, the filming has started for the new youth investment on SVT, the young adult show Eagles which is filmed in Oskarshamn. And now I'm with two of the actors; Adrian Öjvindsson and Maria Alm Norell who plays... Adrian plays the son. And Maria, as you probably heard here in the beginning, plays the mom. So Adrian, one of the actors here, why are you [in the show]?

Adrian: Yeah, it sort of happened by chance actually. It was open casting in Växjö that my friends were going to so I came with them as a kind of day trip, almost. And then I tried auditioning and then they called me and now I'm here.

Interviewer: Have you done theatre or movies or anything like that before?

Adrian: Yes, since I started high school at the C4 school* in Kristianstad. Ever since then I've been in some local musicals and stuff like that.

Interviewer: How does it feel to be here today then?

Adrian: It's exciting. It's completely new to me, film and stuff, so it's fun to see how everything works and... yeah.

Interviewer: Stefan H. Lindén, you are one of the people behind this - what's this show about?

Stefan: Yeah, it's a young adult show that's very much about love, friendship, and rivalry - those are sort of the catchwords, the theme; the core of the show. What you can say about it is that a family returns to Oskarshamn after being away from the town for many years, brings their two children home and they start school here and start playing hockey here, so... So that's the...

Interviewer: And we're in an apartment in Oskarshamn. The show is filmed in both apartments and other places in Oskarshamn. In this apartment - it's a two-story apartment with tenant ownership - there are tons of tripods, cords on the floor, and you really see things are taking place, things are happening here. Where else are you going to [film], Stefan?

Stefan: We'll be all over town, really. And we're going to be in a few houses out by Havslätt* among others, and then we'll also be at the school a lot since it is a young adult show and the characters go to high school-

Interviewer: Oskarsgymnasiet.

Stefan: Yes, exactly, Oskarsgymnasiet. Then we'll also be in the ice rink a lot, of course.

Interviewer: And Adrian Öjvindsson, you're playing this hockey guy. What do you look forward to the most during these seven weeks when you're going to film?

Adrian: Well just to develop and see how things work with filming and everything like that. So yeah... Just to experience this format.

Interviewer: Alexandra Thönnersten, this next scene, what's it about?

Alexandra: Well, our hockey guy is going to wake up after a party and maybe doesn't feel 100% so we'll just see how that goes.

Interviewer: Okay Adrian, are you ready to act hungover here then?

Adrian: Yup! (laughs)

Interviewer: From Oskarshamn, filming for the young adult show Eagles. Sofia Valve for P4 Kalmar, Sveriges Radio.
