The whole European angle was very important for us, not only story wise but also the way we were going to produce it. It really had to be a European collaboration, not just cast but also crew. We felt that with the past years of Europe being on the decline, we wanted to give a counterpoint to Brexit, and to nationalism rising in different countries, to go back to that idea of Europe and Europeans working and creating together. Being true to the cultures and the languages was 1899 really important, we never wanted to have characters from different countries but everyone speaks English. We wanted to explore this heart of Europe, where everyone comes from somewhere else and speaks a different language, and language defines so much of your culture and your behaviour.

As with Dark, Jantje Friese served as the head writer of the show. The staff writing team comprised writers of different nationalities including Emma Ko from Hong Kong and the UK, Coline Abert from France, Jerome Bucchan-Nelson from the UK, Juliana Lima Dehne from Brazil 1899 and the US, Joshua Long from the US, Darío Madrona from Spain, and Emil Nygaard Albertsen from Denmark. According to director Baran bo Odar, all scripts were first written in English, then the non-English sections were translated by the staff writers and/or translators. bo Odar had phonetic copies of the script on set, and language assistants were present during filming to ensure that the accuracy of the non-English dialogue.
