HBO has yet to officially confirm a second season of the show, though Nic Pizzolatto, the shows creator, told Rolling Stonethat hes already started writing the next season. (Like the first season, the author has eschewed a writing team in favor of writing the entire season himself.) Ive got three characters I love right now, and theyre all unique, and neither of them is Cohle or Hart, he says.
The debut of the shows eight-episode run, which introduced McConaughey and Woody Harrelson as two Louisiana homicide detectives searching for a serial killer, was the networks highest-rated debut since 2010s Boardwalk Empire with 2.3 million viewers.

McConaugheys departure may be more a function of Pizzolattos plan for the show all along. True Detective was conceived as an anthology show, with each season telling a discrete story with a different locale and group of characters. This may include the emergence of a strong female protagonist. In a now-deleted tweet, Pizzolatto replied to one fan who requested a deeper look at the shows female characters with, One of the detriments of only having two POV characters, both men (a structural necessity).

Speaking to Rolling Stone about the show, McConaughey explained what drew him in. I loved the writing, he said. I read the first two episodes, and I said, Im in. Its like Mark Hanna in Wolf of Wall Street or Ron Woodroof in Dallas Buyers Club. These are characters with clear obsessions, and thats what Ive been choosing. Somebody where I could grab ahold of their obsessions and get drunk on them.
