HBO Is in Talks with Writers for TRUE DETECTIVE Season 4

HBO is looking to develop a fourth season of its gritty, dark crime series True Detective. They are currently in talks with writers to bring the series back. Casey Bloys, chief content officer at HBO and HBO Max shared the news in a recent interview saying:

“It’s safe to say we’re working with a couple of writers to find the right tone and take. It’s definitely an area that could be very interesting and I think it would be interesting with a new voice. Quality is what’s going to guide us so if we end up with scripts that we don’t feel are representative or are not at a high enough quality, we’re not going to do something just to do it.”

I thought the first season of the series was great! It told one hell of a crazy story, and while I liked the next two seasons, they didn’t reach the bar of excellence that the first season set.

The series was created and written by Nic Pizzolatto, and if HBO does move forward with it, I hope that they manage to come up with a great story!

Bloys didn’t reveal who they are working with, but Deadline says that Lucia Puenzo, who co-created and Argentinean drama Cromo, and Euphoria creator Sam Levinson were among those that have been developing a new take on the series.
