True Detective Season 2 Rumors

Published Fri, 18 Jul 2014 12:30:36 -0500

Fans of the HBO series True Detective are already itching for more episodes and the rumors surrounding the second season are starting to pick up. Reports that Colin Farrell was being considered for one of the three main characters surfaced last week and now Collider.com is sharing some possible plot specifics from a newer website called Film Divider… so new the link isn't working… so take this with a grain of salt.

"The new mystery is to be kickstarted by the murder of Ray Caspar, City Manager of a fictional Californian city. From what I can gather, the new, partly invented map that Pizzolatto is drawing will be essential to his new story. As he teased, some months ago, part of the mystery will involve California's transportation systems. This plot will involve a corrupt scheme to link North and South California with a high speed train, all in pursuit of profitable land ownership and lucrative federal grants."

"I can tell you now that these would make up two corners of the series' central triangle of investigators, two men and a woman from different Californian cities and their own distinct branches of the State's law enforcement bodies, coming together to uncover a whole mess of corruption.

The third corner will be a woman, a character in her 30s. She's a Monterey Sherrif with – as you might well expect – trouble in her past and problems in her day-to-day. Her issues are with alcohol and gambling.

Farrell's character has terrible problems with cocaine and anger management. The young guy, a member of the California Highway Patrol, has been suspended for sexually exploiting a young woman he pulled over. Nobody is clean."
