6. Rachel McAdams And Taylor Kitsch Will Be The Leads
True Detective is going bigger for its second season. While the first focused on the pairing of Cohle and Hart, this time there will be four characters who will be serving as leads in the show. Rachel McAdams will be Ani Bezzerides, a Ventura County Sheriffs detective whose uncompromising ethics put her at odds with others and the system she serves." One of the biggest criticisms of season 1 was the poor representation of females on the show, and that is being addressed here with Bezzerides set to be one of the main characters, and by the sounds of things the one wholl serve as the lead protagonist and moral compass. It seems like being an excellent role for the oft-underused McAdams, one thatll show just how far shes come since Mean Girls and The Notebook. Taylor Kitsch, best known for the likes of John Carter and Battleship, will be playing Paul Woodrugh, who has been described as a war veteran and motorcycle officer for the California Highway Patrol, running from a difficult past and the sudden glare of a scandal that never happened." Kitschs film career may not have quite taken off, but he has form on TV with Friday Night Lights, and his casting caused much less of a stir than that of the other two male leads
