Finally, an answer that doesn’t come from Instagram! While talking to Newsweek, Nic Pizzolatto let his feelings on the subject be known. “"I would say now I’m feeling generative and want to keep that momentum going — if I’m allowed to,"

He also added, “"I dream of making a TV show where you have recurring characters and don’t have to reinvent the wheel every time. After one of these, I always feel so depleted. But I have to say, I have an idea… It’s really, really wild. Where do you even go after this [season]? I just had a lead character who’s 35, 45 and 70 all at the same time and this mystery that has to reach false resolutions and keep going into the future without cheating the audience and all these complicated structural elements, but I have an idea that’s kind of crazy. I think it needs to percolate for a while. I was looking to do another series, maybe a movie, in the meantime."

HBO has yet to give the show the greenlight (or redlight) for season 4, though Pizzolatto’s comments are more than promising.
