Step into the dimly lit streets of Oslo, where shadows loom and secrets tease, drawing you deeper into the city's twisted heart. Netflix unveils a first glimpse of its upcoming series, Jo Nesbo's Detective Hole, whose Norwegian title is Jo Nesbøs Harry Hole.
Premiering globally on March 26, this nine-episode serial killer mystery brings the Norwegian anti-hero Hole to life, played by Tobias Santelmann (Exit, The Arctic Convoy). He is joined by Joel Kinnaman (Altered Carbon, The Suicide Squad) as his nemesis Tom Waaler, and Pia Tjelta (Made in Oslo, No Comment, State of Happiness) as Rakel Fauke, alongside an ensemble cast that includes Ellen Helinder, Anders Baasmo, Kåre Conradi, Simon J. Berger, Peter Stormare, and many more.
"Finally, we can reveal the premiere date and share this first look at Tobias Santelmann as Harry Hole," said author, creator, screenwriter, and executive producer Nesbø. "Seeing Tobias bring Harry to life has been truly exhilarating and marks a new chapter for the character. I'm eager to share his take on Harry with the audience and invite them on a journey that is both dark and twisted."
Directed by Øystein Karlsen (Exit) and Anna Zackrisson (The Helicopter Heist), Jo Nesbo's Detective Hole is a tale of obsession, betrayal, and the blurred lines between justice and revenge. As Harry Hole faces off with his nemesis Tom Waaler, audiences will be drawn into a game of cat and mouse where the stakes have never been higher. But every crime case has its hidden clues.
The streamer also describes the series as a "character drama about two police officers – and supposed colleagues – operating on opposite sides of the law." The corrupt detective Waaler is Hole's long-time adversary. Hole himself is a brilliant but tormented homicide detective who struggles with his demons.
Jo Nesbo's Detective Hole comes from producer Tor Arne Øvrebø and executive producers Tim Bevan, Eric Fellner, Amelia Granger, Katy Rozelle, Rene Ezra, Øystein Karlsen, Nesbø, and Niclas Salomonsson. The production company is Working Title, and the studio is Universal International Studios, a division of Universal Studio Group.
