Aksel Hennie plays Roger Brown, a wealthy business recruitment officer who hides a secret from his trophy wife: to pay the mortgage he moonlights as an art thief, stealing rare works from the homes of his clients. Roger is living a life of luxury well beyo. Aksel Hennie is Roger Brown, a corporate headhunter, a man who finds the perfect person for any upper-level job. Based on the 2008 Jo Nesb book of the same name, the film. Headhunters (Norwegian: Hodejegerne) is a 2011 Norwegian action thriller film based on the 2008 novel Headhunters by Jo Nesb. However, this stand-alone caper is altogether more escapist than Nesbo's trademark fare.
