True Detective Season 2: Colin Farrell and Vince Vaughn Haven’t Met Yet

That headline should help give you a better idea of where exactly the production stands. Irish Central is reporting that while at  the premiere for his film, Miss Julie, Farrell dropped a bit of True Detective info. One such tasty bite was that he and co-star Vince Vaughn haven’t even met yet, which means that we could still be waiting a bit before production really ramps up.

That’s not exactly surprising, but it is sobering. It’s easy to get carried away with the mountain of details that we’ve gotten recently, but it’s still important to keep things in perspective. Fortunately, Farrell seems like he’s really pumped for the role:

More from HBO

"“I’ve only read half of the eight episodes. It’s phenomenal writing, strong writing. It’s all there on the page. Nic Pizzolatto has done an incredible job creating this new world that is a separate time and separate place and has a completely new array of characters than the first season.”"

His enthusiasm is practically contagious. This is the second time that we’ve gotten some information from Farrell, who previously leaked to the world that he was confirmed for the role before HBO could announce it. If most of the crew intends to stay silent, perhaps Farrell will continue to be our font of knowledge.
