Jo Nesbø's Harry Hole (titled Jo Nesbø's Detective Hole outside Scandinavia) is an upcoming Norwegian streaming television series, created by Jo Nesbø, and adapted from his Harry Hole novels, specifically the fifth instalment The Devil's Star. The series will be released on Netflix in 2026.
Harry Hole, a troubled Oslo police detective, must contend with both a horrific serial killer and his corrupt colleague Tom Waaler.
The series was revealed by Netflix as part of their "Next on Nordic presentation" at Stockholm in March 2024, to spotlight the company's forthcoming Scandinavian productions. Nesbø was announced to adapt his own novel, reuniting with So Long, Marianne collaborator Øystein Karlsen who signed on as director and executive producer.[1] In August, Anna Zackrisson joined the directing team.

In May, the lead actors were revealed to be Tobias Santelmann as the titular Harry Hole, Joel Kinnaman as dirty cop Tom Waaler and Pia Tjelta as Rakel Fauke, Harry's partner.[4] The three stars were unveiled at a press event at Oslo’s Restaurant Schrøder, a prominent location in the Harry Hole novels.[5]
In August, 28 new cast additions were announced, led by Peter Stormare.[6]
