Nicolas Winding Refn to direct Amazon series Too Old To Die Young

February 9, 2017 by Samuel Brace

Originally published February 9, 2017. Updated November 30, 2022.

It was only last month that a report came out regarding Danish director Nicolas Winding Refn’s next feature, but now news has broken that Refn is to work on an entirely different project for Amazon.

The man behind Drive and Only God Forgives is set to direct a new a crime thriller in the vein of Refn’s early work on his Pusher trilogy.

The series will be called Too Old To Die Young, and Refn will write, direct and produce the project.

Reported in Variety, the show will focus on the criminal underworld of Los Angeles and will explore “various characters’ existential journeys from being killers to becoming samurai’s in the city of angels”.

The venture is bound to be a stylish affair – given Refn’s neon soaked history – and makes sense given the two parties partnership over the director’s last film The Neon Demon.

The Avenging Silence was said to be Refn’s next project – a Bond type spy thriller set in Tokyo. Whether that project is now dead or just on the back burner remains to be seen.

Too Old To Die Young has been greenlit for 10 episodes by Amazon and will shoot this autumn in LA.
