(Mahershala
Ali stars as Detective Wayne Hays)
The brand-new season of True Detective starts on M-Net 101 this
January
An intricate and brutal murder, a haunted
detective duo and a lingering, decades-old mystery sets the scene for the new
season of the critically acclaimed drama True
Detective. With Oscar and Golden Globe-winner Mahershala Ali in the lead,
the HBO drama returns with an eight-episode third season from January 16 at 22h10,
exclusively on M-Net channel 101 DStv.
This instalment of the gritty crime
anthology plays out over three separate time periods: 1980, 1990 and 2015. Ali
stars as Detective Wayne Hays who, in the present, is retired and called upon
to look back at the disappearance of a young Arkansas boy and his sister in
1980. With his memory failing, the case triggers vivid recollections and
enduring questions for the man, who worked the case 35 years ago with his
partner Roland West. As their story unfolds over the season, it soon becomes
apparent that a seemingly routine investigation turned into a long and
troubling journey to dissect and make sense of a cruel and violent crime.
Filmed at locations throughout northwest
Arkansas, season 3 stars Oscar and Golden Globe winner Mahershala Ali (Moonlight, Green Book) as state police
detective Wayne Hays, with Stephen Dorff (Somewhere)
as Roland West, Hays’ partner and Carmen Ejogo (Selma) as schoolteacher and writer Amelia Reardon.
In a gripping story where time has taken
everything but the truth, this season’s disquieting and enduring mystery is
only made more compelling by its superb cast. Watch the unravelling of this
dark crime anthology every Wednesday, starting January 16 at 22h10. Season 3
will also be available on DStv Now and on the DStv Catch Up platforms.
