The anthological approach of the show True Detective has succeeded in flattering the audience for the past three seasons. The likes of Matthew McConaughey, Woody Harrelson, Colin Farrell, Taylor Kitsch, Vince Vaughn, Rachel McAdams, Michelle Monaghan, and Mahershala Ali, among others, joined the show created and co-written by Nic Pizzolatto across seasons. The several accolade-winning show’s statuses is still up in the air as far as True Detective Season 4 is concerned.

True Detective Season 4 Release Date & Announcement
Pizzolatto, the writer of the show seemed to have been working in January 2019 towards the development of what could have possibly been the fourth season of the show. However, he changed his plans in April.
As of now, his new direction regarding the show hasn’t been disclosed. It does in fact seem like the storyline has been abandoned since we haven’t heard anything about the renewal of the show for Season 4. 2020 is almost over and nothing of the sort has been openly discussed by the creators so we’ll have to wait till 2021 to find out more.
True Detective Storyline
Each season has its own set of characters who follow their own path to solve the crime. The third season has Mahershala Ali playing the character of an Arkansas detective named Wayne Hays. He has been obsessed for decades with solving a single case revolving around two siblings out of which one was murdered and the other has been missing ever since. The show divides the storyline into three-time frames – 1980, 1990, and 2015.
