'True Detective: Night Country' showrunner Issa López teases new season will reference past stories: 'There are Easter eggs throughout that you will find and there's a big, big thing in episode 6.'
Showrunner Issa López says her new season will carry references to past installments of the HBO anthology series, including "a big, big thing in episode 6."Christian Holub is a writer covering comics and other geeky pop culture. He's still mad about 'Firefly' getting canceled."There are Easter eggs throughout that you will find and there's a big, big thing in episode 6 that you will discover in time," López said at an HBO press event on Thursday.
Jodie Foster in 'True Detective: Night Country' vs. Matthew McConaughey in 'True Detective' season 1., the two investigators are tasked with solving a seemingly impossible problem. In this case, it's the disappearance of six men who work on the Tsalal Arctic Research Station in Alaska, just before the onset of Alaska's annual 30 days of unceasing night.
Were supernatural elements involved? What horrors lurk in the darkest night? Setting the story at an Arctic research base evokes John Carpenter's cult classic movieseasons, where viewers see characters played by Matthew McConaughey or Mahershala Ali at vastly different times of their lives. "HBO, you guys are incredible in the way that you trust a crazy Mexican," López said. "They were like, 'You can do it. Whatever you want.' Which is terrifying, it's the worst thing."
López continued, "I'm not going to follow the format and I'm not going to follow the way it's shot. I do follow the idea and the aesthetic of this world behind them, and I constantly go back to show you the universe, the world where it's set, which is so unique. This corner of the north, forgotten by the world, Alaska. That I kept.
