Juno Temple, Jon Hamm, and Jennifer Jason Leigh are set to star in Season 5 of Fargo, Deadline reports. The next installment of Noah Hawley‘s anthology will be the FX series’ most contemporary yet, set in 2019. While not much is known about the plot of Season 5, Temple, Ham, and Leigh will play Dot, Roy, and Lorraine, respectively. According to Deadline, the season deals with kidnapping — or, at least, what appears to be a kidnapping. Hawley and Warren Littlefield return as executive producers, as do the Coen Brothers. Fargo tends to alternate between retro and modern settings. Season 1 of the crime drama, which starred Billy Bob Thornton, Allison Tolman, Colin Hanks, and Martin Freeman, took place in 2006, while Kirsten Dunst, Patrick Wilson, Jesse Plemons,&n...

It was billed as a Fargo reunion, b...
The Pitch: Like the first fall of snow in an open field, Fargo drifts back into this desolate year with its fourth season. Three years after Mary Elizabeth Winstead blew us away and Ewan McGregor won our hearts twice, FX’s black comedy/crime drama returns, this time focusing on two rival crime families and their struggle for control over 1950 Kansas City. In order to broker peace, Loy Cannon (Chris Rock), leader of the Cannon crime syndicate, and Donatello Fadda (Tommaso Ragno), head of the Italian mafia, trade their youngest sons to be raised by their enemies. A sudden turn of events leaves this new peace in jeopardy as both family heads struggle to navigate shifting loyalties and outside pressure. Meanwhile kooky nurse Oraetta Mayflower (Jessie Buckley) befriends her neighbor, high schoo...
