Great and exciting casting of Vaughn and Farrell for HBO’s ‘True Detective’ returning for a second season, replacing Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson.
The eight-episode hour-long drama set to begin production later this fall in California, was created and written by Nic Pizzolatto and the first two episodes will be directed by Justin Lin.
The story line has three police officers and a career criminal navigating a web of conspiracy in the aftermath of a murder.
Colin Farrell is Ray Velcoro, a compromised detective whose allegiances are torn between his masters in a corrupt police department and the mobster who owns him.
Vince Vaughn is Frank Semyon, a career criminal in danger of losing his empire when his move into legitimate enterprise is upended by the murder of a business partner.
Stay tuned for more casting as it’s confirmed.
