While each follow-up season of True Detective featured several big names leading the charge, it was the first season with Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harren that truly carved its place in television history. If there is ever a version of the show that recasts Matthew and Woody as Rustin Cohle and Martin Hart, respectively, it’s a no-brainer that we will have yet another iconic season that would be worth the wait of over a decade.
With a fifth season in development – possibly Nicholas Cage taking the charge – there is still hope for Rust and Martin in the future. Recently, Matthew McConaughey teased the possibility of returning to his iconic role, but with one important condition: the script must have that “fire and originality.”
While the show’s creator, Nic Pizzolatto, has reportedly discussed the idea, McConaughey admitted he hasn’t seen the scripts yet. “There’s excitement, yes, but I haven’t seen a script yet,” he said. (via NME)
He also emphasized that the trajectory for Rust and Martin should surpass what they pulled off in the first season. “We’re keen on the idea but it’s nothing more than an idea. If Nic puts something on paper that Woody and I think is good enough, it wouldn’t even be a choice. We would look at it and go, ‘it must happen’. It’s gotta be damn good though because we set a pretty good precedent!”
True Detective Season 1 won six Primetime Emmy Awards, received three major Golden Globe nominations, and won a BAFTA TV Award for Best International TV Series.
