It has been an occasionally enjoyable if inconsistent series to date, but the new season of 'True Detective' certain promises something different.
Season 4 of the hit crime anthology series will see Jodie Foster take the lead role and is set in Alaska. Its title is 'True Detective: Night Country' and will see Foster play the role of Detective Liz Danvers, who - alongside her fellow Detective Evangeline Navarro (Kali Reis) - is tasked with finding eight men who have disappeared from a research centre in the remote Alaskan town of Ennis.
HBO say that they will "confront the darkness they carry in themselves, and dig into the haunted truths that lie buried under the eternal ice." Oooooooh.
Foster and Reis - who is a professional boxer-turned- actress, who has has a handful of roles in films like 'Catch the Fair One' in recent years - will follow in the footsteps of previous stars including Matthew McConaughey, Vince Vaughn, Colin Farrell, Woody Harrelson and Rachel McAdams, who have appeared in previous seasons of the show.
The cast of 'True Detective: Night Country' will also include John Hawkes, Christopher Eccleston, Fiona Shaw, Finn Bennett, Anna Lambe, Aka Niviâna, Isabella Star Lablanc, and Joel D. Montgrand.
There's no date for the premiere yet, but HBO say it will debut 'this year.'
