First look: Michael Fassbender in Jo Nesbo’s The Snowman

The very first images from the upcoming big-screen adaptation of Jo Nesbo‘s best-selling novel The Snowman have been released online. The film stars Michael Fassbender as the film’s lead protagonist Harry Hole, who, after finding a pink scarf on a snowman, searches for a missing woman.

Rebecca Ferguson and Charlotte Gainsbourg also star in the film, which is directed by Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy helmer Tomas Alfredson.

In a recent interview with Digital Spy in the UK, Fassbender had the following to say abot the film.

“It’s got that Scandi-noir element to it, for sure,” he said. “I think it’s going to be very rich. I love working with Tomas Alfredson. He’s an absolutely great filmmaker. And I think it’s going to be scary, and I think it’s going to be edge-of-the-seat stuff.”

“I like it because Harry Hole’s a very flawed genius in his department of work. He’s an excellent detective. But he kind of goes off the rails. He’s very human. Let’s say, if there was a fight sequence with somebody. He’s not Jack Reacher. He comes off the worse for wear a lot of the times in these encounters. And I like that. There’s something kind of funny about that. I find that there’s really comical elements there.”

We’ve got a little while to wait for the film yet with a UK debut set for the 13th October. Toby Jones and J.K. Simmons. Check out the fist images from the film, courtesy of The Film Stage.
