The Clark series in six parts will be directed by Jonas Åkerlund, who in a press release describes the story as "extremely violent, witty, emotional, real and surreal."
Bill Skarsgård takes on the challenge of playing Clark Olofsson with dreaded delight.
"Clark's life and history is so incredible and screwed that it would make Scorsese blush," he said in the press release.
Clark is produced by Scandinavian Content Group and is based on Clark Olofsson's autobiography Vafan was what happened. It will be shown exclusively on Netflix but no release date has been announced yet.
