Last year, it was revealed that the new season will be set in the Ozarks (highlands between Arkansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma which was the featured setting for popular Netflix show Ozark).

Season 3 “tells the story of a macabre crime in the heart of the Ozarks, and a mystery that deepens over decades and plays out in three separate time periods”. 

A premiere date for season 3 is not yet known but reports state that filming will begin on February 12 in Arkansas.

The critically-acclaimed first season of True Detective aired in 2014, starring Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson in the lead roles. 

The anthology series then returned for a second run in 2015, with its entirely new cast including Colin Farrell, Rachel McAdams and Vince Vaughn.

In 2016 HBO’s former President of Programming, Michael Lombardo, said he “takes the blame” for season 2 of the show, after it received a lukewarm response from fans.

The post ‘True Detective’ season 3 co-lead actor and filming start date revealed appeared first on NME.
