HBO president Michael Lombardo had previously commented on the speculation of the new season saying, ""I think the people we will cast will be well-known names. But that wasn't our ambition (in season one)."
Creator Nic Pizzolatto also spoke about the upcoming season saying, "It takes place in California - not Los Angeles, but some of the much lesser known venues of California - and we're going to try to capture a certain psychosphere ambiance of the place, much like we did in season one."
The next season of "True Detective" will begin airing sometime in 2015.
