Alfredson, best known for Let the Right One In and Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, has come aboard the Norwegian thriller that has detective Harry Hole investigating a series of murders by a killer who leaves a Snowman at each crime scene. Alfredson will collaborate on the script with The Killing creator Soren Sveistrup, while Scorsese sticks around as exec-producer.
Not having Scorsese as director probably hurts the bottom line even if Alfredson may be a more natural fit for the material. But if the film does well the plan is to build it into a franchise, of course.
