‘True Detective’ Renewed for Season 5 With ‘Night Country’ Creator Issa López Returning Under New HBO Overall Deal
"True Detective" has been renewed for Season 5 at HBO. Issa López, the creator of "True Detective: Night Country," will helm the fifth season.
The renewal comes as little surprise, given the success of “Night Country,” which saw Jodie Foster and Kali Reis star in the fourth installment of the HBO anthology series. In “Night Country,” detectives Liz Danvers (Foster) and Evangeline Navarro (Reis) investigate the disappearance of eight men working at a remote arctic research station in Alaska. Chris Mundy, Alan Page Arriaga, Steve Golin, and Richard Brown also executive produced along with “True Detective” creator Nic Pizzolatto, Mari Jo Winkler, and Season 1’s Matthew McConaughey, Woody Harrelson, and Cary Joji Fukunaga.
