Gustav Hammersten and Shanti Rooney are the two actors who have been confirmed for the movie so far.

– “Together 99” will be the saddest comedy in the world. It has to be about getting old, looking back, regretting all you’ve done, not regretting anything, lying awake at night missing someone you haven’t met in twenty years, longing to go back, longing to move on, says Lucas Modison comments and continues:

– And about the group – it has shrunk significantly, not many people live there now. Almost everyone has gone their separate ways. What happened to them? Did things go well or badly? Who became famous who ended up in a crazy house? Are dreams of the seventies alive or dead? Does Goran still eat porridge?
