Michael Fassbender Is Gritty Cop Harry Hole, Battling “The Snowman!”
Fans of the classic “nordic noir” series of Detective Harry Hole thriller are celebrating today – the trailer for “The Snowman” is here!
“The Snowman” is from best-selling Author Jo Nesbo, and it’s a terrific thriller about a cop trying to catch a serial killer, who uses snowmen to very gruesome effect.
The first of the Harry Hole novels to be made into a movie is opening worldwide in October.
Here out this amazing trailer for the film
Michael Fassbender is perfect for the role of Harry Hole, Norway’s version of “Dirty Harry” – his unorthodox methods frustrate his superiors – and always draw out the worst in his adversaries.
According to IMDB:
“Fassbender bought drinks for the whole crew after a long day of shooting. The next day, rigging electrician Karl Andre Bru walked up to the famous actor and said jokingly: “thanks for the hangover, man!”. Rumor has it Fassbender cracked up and was unable to keep a straight face for the rest of the day.”
How about this trivia as well:
“Costars Michael Fassbender and Charlotte Gainsbourg have both played extreme sex addicts for the directors they’re best associated with; Fassbender in Steve McQueen’s Shame (2011) and Gainsbourg in Lars von Trier’s Nymphomaniac: Vol. I (2013) / Nymphomaniac: Vol. II (2013)”.
So there you go, this should be an adult thriller that captures the intensity of the book with no holding back.
“The Snowman” is the seventh book in the Harry Hole series, but a great place to jump in…and Nesbo just released the latest Harry Hole thriller as well:
