Ser'Darius Blain and Heather Hemmens in "Caribbean Summer" This week's Best bets By Michelle Rose TV Media 'True' star: After directing epi- sodes of "Orange Is the New Black," "Black Mirror" and "Tales from the Loop," Oscar- winning actress Jodie Foster ("The Silence of the Lambs," 1991) now seems poised to direct her attention to a TV act- ing career. Foster is set to star in the fourth season of the HBO anthol- ogy crime series "True Detective." She will also be cred- ited as one of its executive pro- ducers. This is a big deal because Foster has largely stuck to mov- ies and directing gigs since her breakout role in "Taxi Driver" (1976) — in fact, "True Detective" would give Foster her first series regular role since her days as a child model and actress, when she popped up in episodes of "Mayberry R.F.D.," "The Courtship of Eddie's Father" and "Gunsmoke." "True Detective" has been on pause since Season 3 wrapped in 2019, and it has struggled to match the success of its Emmy- nominated first season led by Matthew McConaughey ("Dallas Buyers Club," 2013) and Woody Harrelson ("Zombieland," 2009). In fact, HBO hadn't officially greenlit Season 4 when Foster's casting was revealed (after lengthy negotiations, according to The Hollywood Reporter). Still, the actress/director's star power all but guarantees we'll see a fourth season, currently titled "True Detective: Night Country.""Night Country" doesn't have a premiere date just yet, but HBO has released an official synopsis: "When the long winter night falls in Ennis, Alaska, the six men that operate the Tsalal Arctic Research Station vanish without a trace. To solve the case, detectives Liz Danvers [played by Foster] and Evangeline Navarro [uncast as of writing] will have to confront the darkness they carry in them- selves, and dig into the haunted truths that lie buried under the eternal ice."
