'Our primary assumption is that a state is behind it,' Mats Ljungqvist said. The prosecutor leading Sweden's probe said in March it was 'still unclear' who was behind the sabotage, calling it 'a complex case'.

Netflix debuts Sullivan's doc Into the Deep streaming on Netflix starting on September 30th, 2022 this fall.The New York Times reported in March that US officials had seen new intelligence indicating that a 'pro-Ukrainian group' was responsible, without the involvement of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. This initially premiered at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival a few years ago. Produced by Mette Heide, Emma Sullivan, and Roslyn Walker. Into the Deep is directed by Australian journalist / filmmaker Emma Sullivan, making her feature directorial debut after a few other shorts and other projects previously. More poignantly, she shows us the innocent enthusiasm of the amateur space mission and then tracks the impact of the crime on Madsen's supporters as they slowly grasp the true nature of the man they called a friend and mentor. With a year's worth of observational footage, her documentary provides an unprecedented portrait of an apparently charming eccentric who turns into a murderer before our very eyes. Notwithstanding the murder's savagery, this seems to have been a carefully planned, premeditated crime and some of Madsen's preparations had been unwittingly caught on camera. On that voyage, Madsen brutally murdered the journalist & disposed of her remains overboard. A year into her project, Sullivan filmed Madsen on August 10th 2017 as he prepared to take a Swedish journalist, Kim Wall, on a trip in his submarine. An apparently charismatic and playful man, Madsen attracted engineering and science students to his workshop in Copenhagen, who were captivated by his energy and wild ambitions. Madsen was famous in Denmark for building a home-made, crowd-funded Submarine and he was now attempting to become the world's first amateur astronaut by constructing his own space rocket. In the summer of 2016, Emma Sullivan, an Australian filmmaker, began documenting the life and work of Danish inventor Peter Madsen. The film is a testimony of the people who were close to Madsen as they slowly grasp the true nature of the man and the terrible crimes he committed." – Director Emma Sullivan When you are suddenly pulled into such a nightmare it changes your life forever.

Here's the official trailer for Emma Sullivan's doc Into the Deep, direct from Netflix's YouTube: It's hard to watch a film about a man who will eventually murder someone, and it's also scary to see how people do reveal themselves and sometimes just say it before it even happens. It has been edited since the Sundance 2020 premiere, removing (and digitally altering) three people who no longer want to be in it. This doc began as an actual profile on Madsen and his rocket-building company, but everything changed after 2017 and director Emma Sullivan spent years putting together this version. It's one of the strangest stories because this guy kept changing his story, and trying different tricks with the police and journalists and everything. The film offers a chilling inside look at the story of famous Danish inventor Peter Madsen, who brutally murdered a Swedish journalist while taking her onboard his homemade submarine back in 2017. It first premiered at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival but hasn't shown up anywhere until now. "You're aware that psychopaths exist amongst us."
