Yahoo News ‘True Detective’ Season 4 Trailer Plunges Into the Alaskan Winter
The latest trailer for True Detective: Night Country puts a strong emphasis on just how unsettling the long periods of darkness in Alaska can be.
The fourth season of HBO’s anthology series stars Jodie Foster and Kali Reis as two detectives — who evidently have some not-so-great history with one another — investigating the disappearance of eight scientists from an arctic research station as the months without sunlight descend on Alaska. “To solve the case,” the show’s logline reads, “Detectives Liz Danvers (Foster) and Evangeline Navarro (Reis) will have to confront the darkness they carry in themselves, and dig into the haunted truths that lie buried under the eternal ice.”

The trailer also expands on an earlier teaser by offering up a few more details about the case — and showcasing the crooked spiral iconography that’s a visual signature for True Detective, having featured in seasons one and three (which took place in the same world).
Foster came aboard the series in May 2022, with a formal pickup for the season and the casting of Reis following a month later. Finn Bennett, Fiona Shaw, Christopher Eccleston, Isabella Star LaBlanc and John Hawkes also star; Anna Lambe, Aka Niviâna, June Thiele, Diane Benson and Joel D. Montgrand are guest-stars.
Issa López serves as showrunner on Night Country and wrote and directed every episode. She executive produces with Foster, Mari Jo Winkler, Barry Jenkins, Adele Romanski, and Mark Ceryak for Pastel; Chris Mundy; Alan Page Arriaga; Steve Golin; Richard Brown; True Detective creator Nic Pizzolatto; and season one EPs Matthew McConaughey, Woody Harrelson and Cary Joji Fukunaga. Princess Daazhraii Johnson, Cathy Tagnak Rexford and Sam Breckman are producers.
