1. When Is True Detective: Night Country Set to Premiere?

No word on the premiere date, but the synopsis alone has us pumped for what’s to come.

2. Who’s In the Cast?

True Detective: Night Country will star Jodie Foster in the leading role. She will be joined by Kali Reis, Fiona Shaw, Finn Bennett, Isabella Star Lablanc, Aka Niviâna, Anna Lambe, Joel D. Montgrand, Christopher Eccleston and John Hawkes.

3. What Is True Detective: Night Country About?

The series will take place in Ennis, Alaska, where eight men mysteriously vanished from the Tsalal Arctic Research Station. The trailer (see above) introduces viewers to the investigation, which is spearheaded by Detective Liz Danvers (Foster). When the evidence points to homicide, she joins forces with Evangeline Navarro (Reis) to solve the case, which is far more complicated than meets the eye.
