Alfredson is already addressing what went wrong
The director of the critically-panned ‘The Snowman’ says he didn’t manage to shoot everything he wanted on his adaptation of Jo Nesbø’s crime thriller, suggesting around 10-15% of the script remained unfilmed. The missing scenes left big gaps in the story, which in turn caused them major headaches in the edit suite.
“Our shoot time in Norway was way too short, we didn’t get the whole story with us and when we started cutting we discovered that a lot was missing,” Tomas Alfredson explained to NRK (the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation).
“It’s like when you’re making a big jigsaw puzzle and a few pieces are missing so you don’t see the whole picture.”
He also suggests that the film was rushed into production after receiving funding saying, “It happened very abruptly, suddenly we got notice that we had the money and could start the shoot in London.”

Could be this year's Collateral Beauty.
