According to Deadline, Justin Lin – director of the last four Fast & Furious movies – is being eyed to board HBO’s True Detective, with the site reporting that Lin is wanted to direct at least the first two episodes of the critically acclaimed show’s second season.
Cary Fukunaga, who recently won an Emmy for his work on the first season, remains attached as executive producer alongside creator Nic Pizzolatto, but is not expected to direct any episodes due to his feature commitments.
So far, no casting has been confirmed for season two of True Detective, although it has been reported that Vince Vaughn (Delivery Man), Colin Farrell (Winter’s Tale) and Taylor Kitsch (John Carter) have all been in talks
