Detective Rebus is coming back to the sceeen, at least for a season.
Will look forward to that
"Moreover, Richard Rankin brings to the role a kind of demonic charisma, a dangerous edge, that makes him more faithful than his predecessors to Ian Rankin’s Rebus – a character who, over the course of 24 books, has committed perjury, used a child molester as unwitting bait to trick Cafferty into committing assault, and been sent for retraining after throwing tea at his boss.Ian Rankin thinks the “terrific” new adaptation has caught the essence of his creation. “He’s very much the brawling Rebus of the early books who thinks that physicality is the way to get a result: he doesn’t always make the right decisions, he’s hot-headed,” he tells me. “And that darkness that’s at the root of the guy, I think Richard Rankin brings out really well.”
