Based on the best-selling novel by crime writer Jo Nesbo.
Snowmen are a lot of things to people: charming, playful, a fond reminder of the Christmas season. One thing they're not is all that scary. Well that is all about to change with the release of The Snowman , starring Michael Fassbender, which had it first trailer come out today.
In the chilly looking game of cat and mouse, Fassbender plays Harry Hole, a detective who investigates the disappearance of a woman whose pink scarf is found around the neck of creepy ...er...snowman. As he goes further down the rabbit hole, a mysterious serial killer seems to be calculating his every move .
The very talented Tomas Alfredson directs a film based on a best seller by Jo Nesbo . The man behind the cryptic Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy and the atmospheric horror Let the Right One In seems like the perfect fit for Nesbo's brand of Scandinavian savagery.
