Jodie Foster, Woody Harrelson, Matthew McConaughey, and True Detective creator Nic Pizzolatto also executive produce.

HBO released this description of season four: “When the long winter night falls in Ennis, Alaska, the eight men who operate the Tsalal Arctic Research Station vanish without a trace. To solve the case, Detectives Liz Danvers (Foster) and Evangeline Navarro (Reis) will have to confront the darkness they carry in themselves and dig into the haunted truths that lie buried under the eternal ice.”
Season one premiered in January 2014 and starred Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson. Colin Farrell, Vince Vaughn, Rachel McAdams, and Taylor Kitsch took over the lead roles in season two, which debuted in 2015. It took four years before season three arrived, starring Mahershala Ali, Carmen Ejogo, and Stephen Dorff, in January 2019.
