Controversial Danish director Lars von Trier is returning to TV for the first time in 20 years. The filmmaker behind Melancholia, Dancer in the Dark and the two-part erotic epic Nymphomaniac will write and direct The House That Jack Built as a high-end TV drama series. Von Trier’s producer Louise Vesth, who has worked with the director since Melancholia in 2011, announced the project during the press conference at the Venice Film Festival for the director’s cut of von Trier’s Nymphomaniac Vol.
