Following his major recurring role on the final season of HBO’s "True Blood", I hear Riley Smith is returning to the pay cable network with a recurring role on "True Detective".

The second installment in the crime franchise revolves around three police officers, played by Colin Farrell, Taylor Kitsch and Rachel McAdams, and a career criminal (Vince Vaughn) who must navigate a web of conspiracy in the aftermath of a murder.

Smith will play McAdams’ boyfriend, Steve Mercier, a boyish Sheriff’s deputy.
