FARGO Season 5 First Look Photos, Poster Art, Plot Details, and Premiere Date
FX has shared a bunch of new details regarding the long-awaited Fargo Season 5! We’ve got first-look photos to share with you, plot details, poster art, and the series is set to premiere on Tuesday, November 21st.
This next chapter of the series is set in 2019 in Minnesota and North Dakota. In the story, “After an unexpected series of events lands Dorothy ‘Dot’ Lyon (Juno Temple) in hot water with the authorities, this seemingly typical Midwestern housewife is suddenly 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 a 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.”
As her deepest secrets begin 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.”
It’s explained that “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.”
I’ve enjoyed every season of this show, and I have no doubt that this next season is going to be incredibly entertaining to watch.
Fargo is produced by Noah Hawley, who also serves as showrunner, writer, and director. Season 5 will consist of 10 episodes. Check out the photos below!
