The role of Spede Pasanen is played by Riku Nieminen. The film will be released in theaters a year later in the fall.
The filming of the Spede movie has started. The film is being shot in Finland and Lithuania and it will be in cinemas a year from now in the fall.
The film examines the most innovative phase of Spede and his partners’ filmmaking at the turn of the 1960s and 1970s up to the breakthrough of the Uuno Turhapuro film. In the film, we will see, among other things, the birth story of the Uuno character.
– One of Finland’s most imitated characters now gets a new interpretation through me, says actor Riku Nieminen in the film’s announcement.
