Nick Cave and Warren Ellis create the original score for Jo Nesbø’s Detective Hole, Netflix‘s Norwegian detective drama. The pair has previously teamed on soundtracks for the likes of The Proposition, The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford and Wind River, and will bring those noir sensibilities to the series.
The show is produced by Working Title and based on author Nesbø’s global bestselling crime novels. The whodunnit serial killer drama stars Tobias Santelmann in the titular role of Harry Hole, the anti-hero detective. He goes head-to-head with his long-time adversary and corrupt detective, Tom Waaler (Joel Kinnaman), simultaneously working to catch a serial killer and bring Waaler to justice before it is too late.

In 2009, Nick Cave published The Death of Bunny Munro, a darkly comic novel about a sex-addicted salesman. When The Death of Bunny Munro first came out, Cave and his frequent collaborator Warren Ellis scored the audiobook. Now, The Death of Bunny Munro has been adapted into a TV show, and Cave and Ellis did a completely different soundtrack for that, too.
Imagine writing a book and then making its soundtrack twice. You must feel like you’re excelling in all kinds of fields at once. Matt Smith, star of House of the Dragon and Doctor Who, is the man behind Sky Studios’ new UK TV version of The Death of Bunny Munro. Smith is both the series’ star and its executive producer.
Nick Cave does a lot of soundtrack work.
