RTL2 Broadcasts 'What Happened To Monday?' This December

Catch the intriguing sci-fi thriller streaming after its TV airing as no reruns are scheduled.

On December 22, 2024, RTL2 successfully captivated viewers with its broadcast of the critically acclaimed film What Happened to Monday?, directed by Tommy Wirkola. This science fiction thriller has garnered attention not only for its dystopian narrative but also for the stellar performances of its cast, featuring Noomi Rapace, Glenn Close, and Willem Dafoe.

Set against the backdrop of near-future societal challenges, the film's intriguing premise revolves around a stringent one-child policy aimed at curbing Earth's overpopulation and preventing dire famines. The plot follows the lives of seven identical sisters, all named after the days of the week. They live covertly, permitted to venture out only on their designated day. The narrative intensifies when Monday goes missing, prompting her sisters to seek her out, thereby drawing the scrutiny of government authorities.

Reportedly, many viewers tuned in at 11:58 PM on RTL2 to catch this thought-provoking film. For those who missed the live airing, RTL2 encourages audiences to explore the RTL2-Mediathek, where numerous TV shows are available for streaming. "Here you can find countless TV shows available for streaming as Video on Demand after their broadcast," RTL2 announced, emphasizing its commitment to providing viewers with access to their favorite shows post-airing.

Despite the film's positive reception, RTL2 has indicated there will be no rebroadcast of What Happened to Monday? on its linear television schedule, leaving fans to rely on streaming options to relive the tension and drama of the sisters' struggle for survival and autonomy.

The movie’s excellent ensemble cast collaborates to bring this intense story to life. Helmed by visionary director Tommy Wirkola, the film also features talents such as Marwan Kenzari, Robert Wagner, and Pål Sverre Hagen. Written by Max Botkin and Kerry Williamson, the artwork on-screen is complemented by the cinematography of José David Montero and the evocative score of Christian Wibe. Each component works harmoniously to create a gripping cinematic experience.

Original released to theaters back in 2017, What Happened to Monday? has continued to resonate with audiences, highlighting pressing issues of governance, personal freedom, and societal expectations. Its FSK rating of 16 years and older duly reflects the serious themes tackled throughout the film.

Want to catch up? For additional screenings or potential streaming opportunities, viewers are advised to stay tuned to RTL2's updates. Although the broadcaster has provided no future air dates, access to the RTL2-Mediathek keeps the conversation alive, allowing viewers to engage with its narrative at their convenience.

With What Happened to Monday?, audiences are reminded of the repercussions of rigid societal rules and the importance of individual liberty. The gripping tale of the sisters sheds light on what becomes of humanity when control supersedes compassion—an exploration worth revisiting, now made available once again through online platforms.
