FX’s casting announcement included a brief description of the upcoming, much-anticipated fifth season as well as who Keery, Morris, and Moorjani will be playing.
Per FX: “Fargo has traveled through decades, cities and families, and the fifth installment will be no different: Set in 2019, when is a kidnapping not a kidnapping, and what if your wife isn’t yours?”
Joe Keery will play Gator Tillman, Lamorne Morris will play Witt Farr, and Richa Moorjani is starring as Indira Olmstead.
