Forget ‘Bosch,’ Netflix Has the Perfect Dark Replacement Series

The trailer wastes no time setting up the next great television detective as a complicated man who blurs the boundaries of the law when he goes to work. When asked what it’s like working with the great Harry Hole, a colleague confirms he’s the best at what he does, but “He’s just not that good at everything else,” as he punches men in restaurants and alleys and shows up to work with just his ID covering his chest. He’s the other side of the coin to Waaler — an intelligent mind committed to stopping a serial killer at all costs, but unable to get out of his own way at times. The two adversaries aren’t likely to work together, however. From dark and stormy nights in the streets to glittering concert halls, Harry will be on a desperate search for answers to not only solve his latest case, but bring Waaler to justice before it’s too late. He might just need another drink or two to get through it all.
‘Detective Hole’ Isn’t the Only Jo Nesbø Adaptation on the Way
Directing Harry Hole’s upcoming arrival on the small screen are Øystein Karlsen and Anna Zackrisson, while Working Title is producing. With Nesbø working directly on the series, Netflix is hoping to have another winning detective series on its hands, like last year’s Dept. Q, that’s also accurate to the source material. Nesbø, in particular, has been a hot commodity of late as more companies are racing to adapt his books. Alongside Detective Hole, Cary Joji Fukunaga is directing an adaptation of the crime novelist’s Blood on Snow starring Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Benedict Cumberbatch, among others. A Man Called Otto producer Frederik Wikström was also tapped to helm The Night House, based on one of Nesbø’s most popular novels to date.
Detective Hole will lead the charge when it arrives on Netflix on March 26. Check out the teaser in the player above.
