Alla Regina ((full)) — Eva Henger - Scacco

Eva Henger's involvement in "Scacco Alla Regina" is multifaceted. Not only will she be starring in the series, but she is also serving as a producer on the project. Her production company, Henger Film, has partnered with Italian production house, Rai Fiction, to bring this captivating story to life. Eva Henger's passion for chess is well-documented, and she has expressed her excitement about bringing this unique and captivating world to the small screen.

Scacco alla regina arrived at the tail end of the Italian erotic thriller boom—a genre that flourished in the 1970s with directors like Dario Argento and Lucio Fulci, and saw a minor revival in the 1990s with more television-friendly, soft-core aesthetics. The film never achieved major box office success, nor did it earn critical raves, but it has since gained a modest cult following among fans of Euro-trash cinema and completists of Henger’s filmography.
