The Snowman comes from a series of books by Nesbo following grizzled detective Harry Hole.
The Snowman director Tomas Alfredson is blaming the movie’s cold reception on the short filming schedule.
The studio is probably waiting to see how The Snowman will fare in the U.S. before talking of a follow-up – but based on the response so far, it’s not looking likely.
It was hoped the film would launch a new franchise for Fassbender, but the reviews thus far suggest that won’t come to pass.
