Filming has begun on a new bittersweet comedy series starring Laddi. As previously mentioned, the town of Hafnarfjörður will be the setting for Ladda's six-part series, and a filming crew will be travelling around the town this November. Filming will take place over the next 25 days, and began today at the Suðurbæjarlaug.

In these episodes, Laddi plays a character who is faced with death and realises at that point that he has wasted too much of his life on things that are less important than others. He decides to make the most of his final days and resolves, among other things, to hold his own funeral and be present to say goodbye to his loved ones. The idea can be traced to the musings of Jón Gunnar Geirdal, one of the series' six screenwriters, about death and the meaning of life. The other screenwriters are Hekla Elísabet Aðalsteinsdóttir, Sólmundur Hólm, Baldvin Zophoníasson, Ragnar Eyþórsson and Kristófer Dignus, who also directs the series.
