The first image for True Detective creator Nic Pizzolatto's latest film has just been released, revealing that the film will see the director reunite with the star of his most divisive season.

With the season's second episode premiering at 9 p.m. Sunday on HBO, Farrell, sporting his Dublin-born bonhomie, is game to talk about the series and being a true actor.

There’s no denying it, True Detective Seasons 1 and 3 take place in the same timeline. That alone might be exciting enough for some fans, but this connection goes a lot deeper.
