HBO has premiered a full trailer for its highly anticipated series “True Detective: Night Country” which was originally going to arrive this Fall.
Now it has locked in an official release date of January 14th, the series taking the same release slot that HBO used for “The Last of Us” this year.
The series marks the fourth season of HBO’s “True Detective” anthology crime drama and marks the first in which original show creator Nic Pizzolatto isn’t involved beyond contractual credits.
The series will take place in the small town of Ennis, Alaska during the long winter night, when eight men who work operating the Tsalal Arctic Research Station vanish with no explanation.
Detective Liz Danvers (Jodie Foster) and Evangeline Navarro (Kali Reis) have to confront their own dark pasts and hidden truths in order to solve this Arctic mystery.
John Hawkes, Christopher Eccleston, Fiona Shaw, Finn Bennett, Anna Lambe, Aka Niviana, Isabella Star Lablanc, and Joel D. Montgrand also star.
The show marks Foster’s first on-screen TV series work since the early 1970s. Issa Lopez will serve as showrunner, writer, and director of all episodes.
Foster, Barry Jenkins, Cary Joji Fukunaga, Adele Romanski, Mark Ceryak, Mari Jo Winkler, Steve Golin, Richard Brown, Alan Page Arriaga, Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson executive produce.
