Petri Hankonen

Petri Hankonen’s filmography? Oh, it’s a wild ride, honestly. The guy’s got range, bouncing from sharp-witted satire to offbeat drama like he’s just changing shoes. Let’s not pretend you haven’t caught “Villi kortti” from 2015, where he dives headfirst into the chaos of modern relationships—messy, hilarious, sometimes a little uncomfortably real. That show isn’t afraid to poke fun at the things we usually hide under the rug, and Petri’s performance? He nails every awkward pause and sarcastic jab like it’s second nature. Then you’ve got “Noin viikon uutiset” (2014), which, yeah, technically it’s a news satire, but it’s way more than just cheap laughs about politics. There’s this clever edge, like they’re in on the joke with you, and Petri’s delivery just makes every punchline hit harder. He’s got this uncanny ability to flip from deadpan to outrage and back again—in about half a second. And then there’s “Vadakkan” coming up in 2025. Not much is out yet, but buzz says it’s a total 180—a drama with some serious depth. Folks are already hyped to see how Petri takes on a role that’s apparently darker, grittier, and just bursting with tension. Honestly, that’s the fun with following his career—never really sure what’s next, but it’s always worth a watch. If you want someone who can juggle awkward comedy and raw drama without breaking a sweat, Hankonen’s your guy.
