Jana: Marked for Life (Swedish: Jana: Märkta för livet) is a Swedish television crime drama and thriller developed by Viaplay. It appeared on Viaplay's Australian partners SBS On Demand from 6 March 2024. It was initially scheduled for streaming in Europe by Viaplay in late 2023 but was cancelled owing to the company's downsizing. Its European debut was postponed to 19 April 2024 after Prime Video Nordics picked up the series.
The six-part series is based on Emelie Schepp's novel Märkta för livet (2013, English: Marked for Life), which features the protagonist Jana Berzelius, a public prosecutor. The TV series was co-created by Felix Herngren and Henrik Björn, who also direct. The screenwriters are Maria Karlsson, Daniel Sawka and Charlotte Lesche. Filming began in early 2023 in Norrköping and Stockholm. Jana is portrayed by Madeleine Martin, her adoptive parents are Margaretha (Pernilla August) and Karl (Johan Ulveson), with August Wittgenstein as lead prosecutor Peer.
