The (grim!) trailer for the third season of True Detective has been released. Watch it now

HBO has released a new trailer for the third season of True Detective. In the story, detectives Wayne Hayes (Mahershala Ali) and his partner Roland West (Stephen Dorff) investigate the mysterious disappearances of children in the Ozarks, Missouri. The first episode will air on January 13th.

• The action of the series will develop in several timelines at once (an aged Hayes is shown in the trailer).
• The third season, like the previous two, was written and produced by screenwriter Nick Pizzolatto. He will also direct an episode for the first time in the history of the series.
