The main character's name is Harry Hole... I just wanted to reiterate that.
Martin Scorsese Confirmed for The Snowman
Source: The Hollywood Reporter November 21, 2011
Back in October, it was rumored that Martin Scorsese was in talks to direct an adaptation of Jo Nesbo's The Snowman and that is now confirmed. The book marks the seventh entry in Nesbo's "Harry Hole" series and the plot is officially described as follows:
It is November in Oslo and the first snow of the year has fallen. Birte Becker comes home from work and praises the snowman her husband and son have made in the garden. But they haven't made a snowman. As the family stand by the sitting room window looking out in amazement at the snowman, the son notices that it is facing the house. The black eyes are staring at the window. At them.
Detective Inspector Harry Hole receives an anonymous letter signed "The Snowman." Later he finds an alarming common thread in all the old disappearance cases. Married women go missing the day the first snow falls. That same night Sylvia Pedersen is fighting her way through the first snow in a forest outside Oslo. She knows she is running for her life, but she doesn't know what from. Nor does she know what lies ahead. Fortunately.
The Working Title Films project will be written by Matthew Michael Carnahan (World War Z). Working Title's Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner will produce. Nesbo and his literary agent Niclas Salomonsson will receive executive producer credits.
