FX has released a new teaser and synopsis for the upcoming second
season of their Fargo TV series.
The all new “true
crime” case of Fargo’s new chapter travels back to 1979 in Sioux Falls, South
Dakota and Luverne, Minnesota, where a young State Police Officer “Lou
Solverson” (Patrick Wilson), recently back from Vietnam, investigates a case
involving a local crime gang and a major Mob syndicate. Helping him piece
things together is his father-in-law, “Sheriff Hank Larsson” (Ted Danson). The
investigation will lead them to a colorful cast of characters that includes
“Karl Weathers” (Nick Offerman), the town lawyer of Luverne, Minnesota. A Korean
War vet, Karl is a flowery drunk blessed with the gift of gab and the eloquence
of a true con artist.
Three-time Emmy
winner Brad Garrett will play “Joe Bulo,” the front man for the northern
expansion of a Kansas City crime syndicate. The new face of corporate crime,
Joe’s bringing a Walmart mentality to small town America. His number two is
“Mike Milligan” (Bokeem Woodbine). Part enforcer, part detective, Mike is
always smiling – but the joke is usually on you. Bulo and his crew have their
sights set on the Gerhardt crime family in Fargo, currently led by matriarch
“Floyd Gerhardt” (Smart).
With her husband at
death’s door, Floyd takes over the family business, frustrating her eldest son,
“Dodd Gerhardt” (Jeffrey Donovan). An impatient hothead with a cruel streak to
match his ambitions, Dodd can’t wait for both his parents to die so he can take
over and expand their business from kingdom to empire. “Bear Gerhardt” (Angus
Sampson) is the middle son, an intimidatingly large man who, although inarticulate,
is the most decent of his clan. “Rye Gerhardt” (Kieran Culkin), the youngest of
the Gerhardt clan, views himself as a big shot, but in reality he’s just a
small dog who barks big.
Returning in September, the second season of Fargo stars Jesse Plemons, Kirsten Dunst, Patrick Wilson, Ted Danson, Jean Smart, Jeffrey Donovan, Bokeem Woodbineand Angus Sampson, Nick Offerman, Cristin Milioti, Brad Garrett, Kieran Culkin, and Bruce Campbell.
