Well, it's official. After months of rumors naming nearly every actor in Hollywood as possible leads for next season's True Detective, HBO has finally made the announcement that the next iteration of the show (to air next summer) will star Colin Farrell and Vince Vaughn. Nic Pizzolatto has stated that the next season was actually going to be a trio and include a female lead as well (I have to assume that's in response to the criticism from last year), but that casting announcement is still to be determined, with at least seven actresses having been called in to read for the part. What do you guys think? This seems to me to be something of a downgrade from the McConaughey/Harrelson pairing, but I guess these guys could maybe bring something interesting to the series. It's been a while since we've seen Vince Vaughn do drama, and it's been even longer since Colin Farrell has headlined anything. I have to admit I'm more curious about who the female lead will be now, whether or not their desire to get a big star for that part will end up coming true. We'll have to wait and see.
