Fargo S05 Teaser: Sheriff Tillman's Not Above The Law: He IS The Law

A new teaser for the fifth season of FX & Noah Hawley's Fargo gives us a chance to get to know Sheriff Roy Tillman (Jon Hamm) a little more.

As much as we've appreciated all of the attention that Juno Temple's Dorothy "Dot" Lyon has been receiving lately, it's nice to see the fifth installment/season of FX & Noah Hawley's Fargo beginning to introduce us to the rest of its impressive ensemble cast. And who better to follow up Dot with than Sheriff Roy Tillman (Jon Hamm) – the "Coyote" to Dot's "Road Runner." The rancher, preacher & constitutional lawman is ready to do whatever it takes to bring Dot in – and he might be the only one who understands what she's capable of – as you're about to see in the following teaser.

Set to hit screens beginning November 21st (and also streaming on Hulu), here's a look at the newest teaser that was released earlier today, followed by the official trailer for FX's Fargo Installment 5 & a rundown of who you need to know this season:

A Look Inside FX's Fargo Installment 5

Here's a look back at the preview images and extended season overview that were previously released that introduced viewers to the major players in play this season:

After an unexpected series of events lands Dorothy "Dot" Lyon (Juno Temple) in hot water with the authorities, this seemingly typical Midwestern housewife suddenly is plunged back into a life she thought she had left behind.

North Dakota Sheriff Roy Tillman (Jon Hamm) has been searching for Dot for a long time. A rancher, preacher, and constitutional lawman, Roy believes that he is the law and therefore is above the law.

At his side is his loyal but feckless son, Gator (Joe Keery), who is desperate to prove himself to his larger-than-life father. Too bad he's hopeless. So when it comes to hunting Dot, Roy enlists Ole Munch (Sam Spruell), a shadowy drifter of mysterious origin.

With her deepest secrets beginning to unravel, Dot attempts to shield her family from her past, but her doting, well-meaning husband "Wayne" (David Rysdahl), keeps running to his mother, "Lorraine Lyon" (Jennifer Jason Leigh), for help. CEO of the largest Debt Collection Agency in the country, the "Queen of Debt" is unimpressed with her son's choice in a wife and spares no opportunity to voice her disapproval.

However, when Dot's unusual behavior catches the attention of Minnesota Police Deputy "Indira Olmstead" (Richa Moorjani) and North Dakota Deputy "Witt Farr" (Lamorne Morris), Lorraine appoints her in-house counsel and primary advisor, "Danish Graves" (Dave Foley), to aid her daughter-in-law. After all, family is family. But Dot has an uncanny knack for survival. And with her back to the wall, she's about to show why one should never provoke a mother "Lyon."

FX's Fargo is produced by showrunner, writer & director Hawley and his production company 26 Keys, EP Warren Littlefield (The Handmaid's Tale, The Old Man), and his production company The Littlefield Company, as well as EPs Steve Stark, Kim Todd, Joel Coen & Ethan Coen. The award-winning anthology series is produced by MGM Television and FX Productions and internationally distributed by Amazon & MGM Studios Distribution.
