TRUE DETECTIVE Gets Character Posters For Season 2
I'm setting my expectations low for Season 2 of HBO's True Detective. I feel like the first season was lightning in a bottle with McConaughey, Harrelson, and director Cary Fukunaga teaming for the entire run of episodes, and since none of those guys are coming back, it's clearly going to be an entirely different show moving forward. Creator Nic Pizzolatto is still running things behind the scenes, though, and I'm sure he has some pretty solid stuff cooked up. I hope it's just as amazing as the first season, but there's no harm in lowering expectations and then being pleasantly surprised.
But this is the Internet, and with a show like True Detective causing such an uproar last season — people parsed practically every frame for clues about the Yellow King and Carcosa — I'm sort of surprised the conspiracy theories haven't begun for the second season already. Today, for example, we have character posters featuring Taylor Kitsch, Rachel McAdams, Vince Vaughn, and Colin Farrell. Each of them is gripping something in their hands, except for Taylor Kitsch's character (above). WHAT DOES IT MEAN? WHAT DOES IT MEAN? Maybe we'll find out when the second season premieres on June 21st.
