The Silence of the Lambs star Jodie Foster is to lead the fourth iteration of HBO's True Detective franchise, True Detective: Night Country, Deadline reported.
Foster, who will also executive-produce, will play Detective Liz Danvers in the series.
The series is centered around Danvers and fellow Detective Evangeline Navarro, who are looking to solve the case of six men that operate the Tsalal Arctic Research Station vanishing without a trace when the long winter night falls in Ennis, Alaska. The pair will have to confront the darkness they carry in themselves and dig into the truths that are buried under the permanent ice.
Remarkably, this marks the first major TV role for Foster as an adult. The out actresswho was 12 when she starred in Taxi Driverwas featured in series such as Gunsmoke, My Three Sons and ABC's TV spinoff of Paper Moon as a child, but has not had a starring role on the small screen since 1975.
True Detective, which was created and written by Nic Pizzolatto, ran for three seasons between 2014 and 2019. The award-winning first season starred Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson. |
