Film Adaptation of Jo Nesbø’s ‘The Snowman’ Could Star Michael Fassbender


Hollywood A-lister Michael Fassbender is in talks to star in the film adaptation of bestselling Norwegian author Jo Nesbø’s crime novel The Snowmen.

The up-and-coming Swedish actress Malin Buska has arrived, with her Best Actress win at the 39th Annual Montreal World Film Festival (MWFF) for The Girl King, which won the Audience Award for Most Popular Film.

BBC Four is bringing some of the most highly-anticipated new Euro TV series to the UK. (No worries, US viewers; chances are better than good that you’ll get these shows, too.)

MHz has got Euro TV fans covered with its re-broadcasts of several fan favorites in September, including mysteries, crime dramas, and legal dramas. Did I mention Beck?

For folks who’ve read Jonas Jonasson’s first novel and seen the movie, there’s good news. The film rights to the Swedish author’s sophomore work have been acquired by Icelandic producer Joni Sighvatsson.

Recent French adaptations of non-“Maigret” works by Belgian author Georges Simenon are on their way to American telly. Ain’t life fantastique!

Unless you watched these episodes when they premiered in the US a while back, you might be thinking, “This doesn’t look like the Annika Bengtzon I remember.” And you’d be correct.

Good news, stateside Nordic noir fans. That taste we had of the Swedish crime drama series Camilla Läckberg’s Fjällbacka Murders earlier this year is about to be a five-course treat.

The business of wine can be deadly. Just ask Benjamin Lebel, the wine expert who’s solved many a murder committed amidst French vineyards in the hit series Blood of the Vine.

Ben dis donc! As MHz Networks transitions its International Mystery programs from broadcast telly to MHz Choice, its new SVoD service, it’s giving US-based Euro TV fans a few final evenings with Maigret.

For stateside viewers who missed any of the new Euro TV shows that recently premiered, you have another chance to watch them before they leave the airwaves for MHz Choice.

Get ready for a new Scandi mystery series, stateside Euro TV fans, because Camilla Läckberg’s Fjällbacka Murders debuts tonight. Cool!
