With the epic sweep and palace intrigue of ‘Game of Thrones,’ new 10-part Hungarian miniseries ‘Rise of the Raven’ had its Italian premiere at the Italian Global Series Festival in Rimini this week. It tells the story of János Hunyadi (played by Gellért L. Kádár), the military leader who leads his forces against the Ottoman invasion in the 15th century. Variety sat down with veteran Hungarian-Canadian producer Robert Lantos, behind Oscar nominated films ‘The Sweet Hereafter,’ ‘Being Julia,’ ‘Eastern Promises’ and ‘Barney’s Version,’ to talk about his passion project.
