It will be released in 2026.
A still from the movie "The Snowman."

Norwegian writer Jo Nesbø will debut as a screenwriter: a series with the working title "Harri Hole", authored by Nesbø, will be released on Netflix. The upcoming project will be based on his novel "The Devil's Star".

The series will tell about detective Harry Hole, who lost everything because of a corrupt colleague Tom Waaler: a girl, a job and peace of mind. But when Harry gets the last assignment — to find the killer of a woman who had her index finger cut off, he has to investigate with the only officer who is not on vacation — Tom Waaler.

The upcoming show will be directed by Øystein Karlsen ("Exit"). The project is scheduled to premiere in 2026.

When you expect him to continue the series of books, but he took up the script, I forgive you every time I read, I thought well, when will they shoot, and hooray! We are really waiting for this 🤞🏻

Oh, I'm reading "The Snowman" right now, it's a pity it just became predictable in the middle of the book, so it's good that it wasn't taken as a basis

That's what kills it too. There's something that minor characters, from book to book, developed, overgrown with various details.
Okay, the first couple of books could be omitted, but at least with "Krasnosheyka", it would be quite possible to start filming, and put the book into a season of 5-6 episodes.
That would be great

In fact, amazing detectives with a special atmosphere, it would be possible to start shooting from the very first book
I'm sure there would be a lot of fans
And from the middle it can turn out like with a Snowman, it is not clear much to those who have not read what is what at all

I really love the series of Detective H. Hall, but I am very afraid for the series. They will not convey the atmosphere of Scandinavia

@x0m1ak: Серьезно? Нетфликс только финансирует сериал, все остальное (сценарий, натура, производство, режиссура, актеры) будет оригинальное. Наглядный пример - "Каштановый человечек".
