FULL STORY
======================================================================

 Netflix announced new mystery thriller series Detective Hole back in May , 
which is based on Jo Nesbs series of crime novels about the legendary 
detective Harry Hole. While the serial killer whodunnit sounds seriously 
chilling, I just hope it doesn't meet the same fate as the movie adaptation 
of The Snowman, which has 7% on Rotten Tomatoes. 

Book-to-screen adaptations have been a big win with the best streaming 
service , with the likes of Mindhunter, Ripley , and the new A Good Girl's 
Guide to Murder all becoming some of the best Netflix shows . So it's no 
surprise that the streamer has decided to make another Netflix Original 
series from the works of one of the greatest storytellers in crime fiction, 
Jo Nesb. 

But it's not the first time Nesb's book has been adapted for the big screen, 
with Michael Fassbender playing the role of Hole in the 2017 movie flop The 
Snowman, which received a dire 7% Rotten Tomatoes score. In The Snowman, Hole 
tracks down a serial killer in Oslo who builds snowmen at their crime scenes. 

 Vox savagely reviewed The Snowman as "the most transcendently awful movie I 
expect to see in 2017," so I just hope that Detective Hole will have a better 
appeal in this new Netflix series coming out in 2026. What will Detective 
Hole be about? 

 Detective Hole will centre on Harry Hole, a renowned yet tormented detective 
who goes up against his long-time rival and corrupt police officer Tom 
Waaler, while a serial killer terrorizes Oslo. 

The official Netflix plot reads: "As the two navigate the blurred ethical 
lines of the criminal justice system, Harry must do all he can to catch a 
serial killer and bring Waaler to justice before it is too late." 

After announcing Tobias Santelmann as Harry, Joel Kinnaman as Tom, and Pia 
Tjelta as Rakel Fauke, Netflix has now revealed the rest of the Detective 
Hole cast , with Peter Stormare, Anders Baasmo Christiansen, Kre Conradi, 
Simon Berger, Fridtjov Sheim and Eili Harboe all onboard to star in this 
Nordic noir series. 

Also joining them are: Atle Antonsen, Manish Sharma, Henriette Steenstrup, 
Jesper Christensen, Kristoffer Joner, Ingrid Bols Berdal, Linn Skber, Jonas 
Strand Gravli, and Sonny Lindberg, amongst many more. 

It's definitely looking promising that Detective Hole may join my list of 
favorite detective series alongside The Sinner, Baptiste , and Luther . You 
might also like Netflix's new movie Daughters has 100% on Rotten Tomatoes but 
nobody seems to be watching it A Good Girls Guide to Murder is a hit on 
Netflix  here are 3 more mystery thrillers with over 92% on Rotten Tomatoes 
to watch next Everyone's sleeping on Netflix's latest crime thriller movie, 
but I loved its 'Danish murder mystery in Borneo' vibe
