Colin Farrell Reportedly Confirms "True Detective" Season 2 Role
by Rebecca Iannucci
September 21, 2014

Well, at least one of "True Detective‘s" casting mysteries has apparently been solved.

Colin Farrell has told an Irish newspaper that he will appear in Season 2 of the HBO drama, following previous speculation that he and Taylor Kitsch were in talks for two of the anthology series’ leading roles.

The Dublin-born actor told Ireland’s Sunday World, “I’m doing the second series. I’m so excited. I know it will be eight episodes and take around four or five months to shoot.”

Farrell offered no specifics of his role, but did note that filming will take place in Los Angeles.

When reached by TVLine for comment on Sunday, an HBO spokesperson was not at this time able to confirm Farrell’s casting.

HBO confirmed on Tuesday that Colin Farrell and Vince Vaughn are the new faces of "True Detective".

Farrell will play Ray Velcoro, whom the network describes as "a compromised detective whose allegiances are torn between his masters in a corrupt police department and the mobster who owns him."

Vaughn will star as Frank Semyon, a career criminal whose move into a legitimate enterprise is threatened when his business partner is killed.

There was plenty of Twitter hate greeting today’s long-anticipated announcement, but the "seen-better-days duo” of Farrell and Vaughn could actually work. PLUS: HBO couldn’t have cast a better actor than Vaughn.
