I've already checked out IMDb.com about my question, but didn't get a clear answer and even got more confused about it. I'm wondering whether the "Millennium" tv-series is based on the previous trilogy of the movies that were made in 2009, or if the tv-series is independent, and made entirely from scratch?
For example, when I open the "The Girl Who Played with Fire" movie page on IMDb, and scroll down to see its duration, I see that the runtime is "129 min | 183 min (TV)".
The first time is for the original movie, but what about the second one? What does "183 min (TV)" mean? Does this runtime include the "Millennium" tv-series? Does this mean the "Millennium" tv-series was created from the original and deleted scenes of the original movies that were cut from the movies? Or was the entire tv-series shot from scratch, and didn't the creators use any shots or scenes from the original trilogy?
