No more of Rust's philosophical asides.
quote:For the record, if it's true that Taylor Kitsch will be in this season as a Detective I think that's great casting and a great role for him.
Here's the official logline, just released...
Three police officers and a career criminal must navigate a web of conspiracy in the aftermath of a murder.
Vaughn is playing the criminal, while Farrell and Taylor Kitsch (not yet announced) are playing two of the three detectives. The final detective, a female, is apparently down to either Jessica Biel or Rosario Dawson, though other names are in the mix as well.

Vince Vaughn has been cast as the other detective with Colin Farrell, it is now official. I'm pretty shocked at this. Vince Vaughn trying to re-launch his career?
Edit: Yes, as TCTTS says, I found the press release and Vince Vaughn is playing a career criminal, mobster type guy

Is there any hope at all that it's someone other than Kitsch for the other male detective?

HBO has just confirmed in a press release that Colin Farrell and Vince Vaughn will star in Season 2 of True Detective. It looks like some of the rumors we reported on last month turned out to be true. I wonder if Taylor Kitsch and Elisabeth Moss will be announced soon?
Per the press release, Colin Farrell will star as Ray Velcoro, a compromised detective whose allegiances are torn between his masters in a corrupt police department and the mobster who owns him.
Vince Vaughn will play Frank Semyon, a career criminal in danger of losing his empire when his move into legitimate enterprise is upended by the murder of a business partner.
The press release also says that more casting announcements will come once they are confirmed.
