FX has announced a November 21st premiere date for the fifth season of its seasonal anthology series “Fargo” with the action this time unfolding in Minnesota and North Dakota in 2019.
This season follows Dorothy ‘Dot’ Lyon (Juno Temple) after an unexpected series of events lands her in hot water with the authorities. This plunges the seemingly typical Midwestern housewife back into a life she thought she had left behind.
Also onboard for the new season are “Mad Men” alum Jon Hamm, “Stranger Things” breakout star Joe Keery, veteran Jennifer Jason Leigh, actor/comedian Lamorne Morris, and British thesp Sam Spruell.
Creator Noah Hawley returns to executive produce alongside Warren Littlefield, Steve Stark, Kim Todd, and Joel and Ethan Coen. MGM Television and FX Productions produce, with Amazon and MGM Studios distributing internationally.
The series joins FX’s fully announced Fall line-up for this year, which will include “American Horror Story: Delicate” on September 20th, “American Horror Stories” on October 26th, and “A Murder at the End of the World” on November 14th.
Hawley meanwhile recently began filming an “Alien” TV series in Thailand.
