There are few better creative minds working in TV right now than Noah Hawley, who has seamlessly transferred his own peculiar brand of genius to the superhero genre with Legion.

Once that finishes it'll be back to the show that put him on the map, with a return to Fargo.

The anthology is easily one of the best TV series of the decade, and Season 3 has another madcap premise and stacked cast (including Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Carrie Coon, and David Thewlis).

Best of all is that it will be led by Ewan McGregor and, well, Ewan McGregor. The actor will play brothers (but not twins) Emmit and Ray Stussy. The latter is "a balding and pot-bellied parole officer with a huge chip on his shoulder" and the former the Parking Lot King of Minnesota.

There sibling rivalry "begins with petty theft but soon leads to murder, mobsters and cut-throat competitive bridge." Seeing McGregor, a really talented actor who hasn't quite had the great roles he should have post-Trainspotting, playing two rather different characters at the same time is going to be great to see.
