While a multitude of rumours had all but confirmed it anyway, speaking to the Sunday World in Ireland, Seven Psychopaths star Colin Farrell recently confirmed that he has indeed officially joined the cast of True Detective for the show’s second season, adding that he’s “so excited” to join the heavily Emmy nominated HBO drama.
While there’s still very little known about other cast members, or the direction the second series will take, we do know Justin Lin (of the Fast and Furious movies) has entered into talks to directed the season premiere, and episode two, of the new season, and have heard rumours of Elisabeth Moss (Mad Men), Taylor Kitsch (Battleship), and Vince Vaughn (The Internship) being up for key roles in season 2, which is expected to air mid-2015 (next year).
