Netflix has only just released its gripping new crime drama Jo Nesb\u00f8’s Detective Hole<\/a>, yet some viewers are already eager to find out whether a second series is on the cards.<\/p>\n The nine-part detective series<\/a> is adapted from best-selling crime author Nesb\u00f8’s The Devil’s Star and takes Netflix<\/a> viewers on quite the ride, reports the Mirror<\/a>.<\/p>\n Detective Hole follows troubled detective Harry Hole (Tobias Santelmann) as he races against the clock to track down a serial killer before they can strike again.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, Harry finds himself locked in a perilous cat-and-mouse game with corrupt fellow police officer Tom Waaler (Joel Kinnaman).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n In an exclusive interview with Daily Express publishers Reach Plc, creator Nesb\u00f8, lead actor Santelmann and Beate L\u00f8nn star Ellen Helinder spoke about the show’s future.<\/p>\n Nesb\u00f8 said: “No plans yet [for a season two]. Right now, we’re just concentrating on getting this TV series out to the audience and we’ve been working on this for three years now.<\/p>\n “So, just the thought of starting all over again right now is a bit premature and we’re so exhausted right now that we want a vacation.”<\/p>\n However, Harry Hole star Santelmann said: “I’m ready. You might be exhausted.”<\/p>\n Nesb\u00f8 jokingly added: “You’re ready? Then I’m ready too for season two.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The crime author confessed he had not yet contemplated the direction he would like to take the show, nor which Harry Hole novel a potential second series might draw from.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, actress Helinder, who portrays the brilliant forensics officer Beate, expressed her aspirations for additional seasons of Detective Hole: “Just to keep working with these amazing people and develop the characters even more.<\/p>\n “There’s so much to find in these people, who work within the law enforcement.<\/p>\n “Even more the morality, the ethical dilemmas and how is Harry going to cope with everything? Who is Beate? I would like to explore her backstory.<\/p>\n “I think this ability that she has for facial recognition is so cool, just for her to keep tracking cases and doing her thing.”<\/p>\n Considering Jo Nesb\u00f8’s Detective Hole has only recently been released, Netflix will be monitoring the viewing figures before reaching any renewal decisions.<\/p>\n The Devil’s Star represents just one of 13 Harry Hole novels that Nesb\u00f8 has penned, meaning there’s abundant material for the programme-makers and indeed the author, who also served as the screenwriter on the Netflix series, to utilise.<\/p>\n
