World Mysteries and Thrillers discussion

Jo Nesbø's Headhunters is or will be soon out as a movie at least in the US.
Found (or found again) on Nesbø's FB page,

Headhunters opened in the US a month ago, but we were distracted with preparations for Cannes and I let it slip past without posting. Thanks to Pierre de Plume for reminding me. Jo Nesbø is a name you should know, because Martin Scorsese is interested in adapting The Snowman, one of Nesbø’s Harry Hole detective thrillers.
Headhunters is showing on only 39 screens across the country right now, so if you’re lucky enough to have one of those theaters near you, might be well worth checking out.

Austin is lucky, one theater will be showing it downtown :)

I'll definitely go see the movie next weekend when it's out - I did read Headhunters a few months back. Enjoyable, but not quite as enjoyable as Harry Hole series (yet again I could not imagine anyone play Harry, where it'll be easier to imagine someone play Roger. Sort of like for Michael Connelly's characters, the guy who played Lincoln Lawyer captured it quite well, but I can't imagine anyone do Harry Bosch without ruining it).

It might have been already out in Norway, UK etc for a while...

I thought the movie was really good! (It's been a while since it was released here) The actor who plays Roger is one of the best from Norway. Oh, I want to see it again.

Is it showing throughout the States or just at some selected theatres?

It was showing in only selected ones - like around 40 cinemas in the whole country. Definitely not enough places for such an awesome movie! And the guy playing Roger rocket, he nailed the role well.
Now Headhunters is out as a DVD too. At least Amazon, Amazon UK, Amazon CA and iTunes store have it.

just saw it on Netflixs pretty
