[TRAILER] True Detective: Season 2

HBO has revealed a second trailer for the upcoming second season of their crime anthology drama series “True Detective”. After the moody music-only first tease, this new one offers some dialogue and story points regarding the new season.

This trailer has racked up an incredible 900,000 views in less than 24 hours.  Impressive.

I hope they retain the theme/intro from the first series though which was totally badass.  I’m not liking this sample soundtrack.  Anyhow if you haven’t caught the first season, trust us, treat yourself to that Blu-Ray box set.  Now here is a synopsis and below that some new stills.

A bizarre murder brings together three law-enforcement officers and a career criminal, each of whom must navigate a web of conspiracy and betrayal in the scorched landscapes of California. Colin Farrell is Ray Velcoro, a compromised detective in the all-industrial City of Vinci, LA County. Vince Vaughn plays Frank Semyon, a criminal and entrepreneur in danger of losing his life’s work, while his wife and closest ally (Kelly Reilly), struggles with his choices and her own. Rachel McAdams is Ani Bezzerides, a Ventura County Sheriff’s detective often at odds with the system she serves, while Taylor Kitsch plays Paul Woodrugh, a war veteran and motorcycle cop for the California Highway Patrol who discovers a crime scene which triggers an investigation involving three law enforcement groups, multiple criminal collusions, and billions of dollars.
