Colin Farrell, Rachel McAdams and Taylor Kitsch fight off bad guys and their own inner demons in the new trailer for “True Detective.”
The second installment of the HBO anthology series also stars Vince Vaughn as the main villain, with the first two episodes directed by Justin Lin.
Season 2 of the Nic Pizzolatto drama will focus on three police officers and a career criminal navigating a web of conspiracy in the aftermath of a murder.
Judging by the new trailer, the police officers will have more on their plate than just catching bad guys.
Farrell plays Ray Velcoro, a compromised detective whose allegiances are torn between his masters in a corrupt police department and the mobster who owns him, while Kitsch is playing Paul Woodrough, a handsome, 28-year-old military veteran who has seen his own share of violence and destruction. McAdams plays police detective Ani Bezzerides.
Vaughn portrays Frank Semyon, a career criminal in danger of losing his empire when his move into legitimate enterprise is upended by the murder of a business partner.
“True Detective” returns for Season 2 on Sunday, June 21 on HBO.
