Woody Harrelson recently addressed one of *True Detective*’s most discussed questions: the possibility of his return to the HBO series. The actor, who played Detective Marty Hart in the first season alongside Matthew McConaughey, spoke about the idea in a recent interview and shared his honest thoughts on revisiting the role.

Speaking on the *3rd Hour of Today* on October 31, the 64-year-old actor made it clear he has no plans to return. “Matthew’s so funny, but in fairness, never. Not a chance,” Harrelson said when asked about revisiting the character.
Harrelson’s comments followed his co-star Matthew McConaughey’s remarks earlier in October, when McConaughey said he would consider another season “if Woody and I think it’s good enough. It wouldn’t even be a choice.”
The two starred together in the 2014 debut season of *True Detective*, earning Emmy and Golden Globe nominations for their performances as detectives Rust Cohle and Marty Hart. The season itself won five Emmy Awards and was widely praised for its writing and performances.
Explaining his decision, Harrelson said, “Because it turned out great. I love that it turned out the way it did. If anything, doing another season would, I think, tarnish that.”
His statement came more than a decade after the show’s first season premiered, which helped launch the anthology series that later featured actors including Colin Farrell, Rachel McAdams, Mahershala Ali, Vince Vaughn, Taylor Kitsch, and Jodie Foster.
Although Harrelson ruled out another *True Detective* appearance, he confirmed that he and McConaughey are reuniting for a new project.
“We are doing something together and this is a comedy, half-hour, and hopefully people dig it,” he said.
The upcoming series, *Brother From Another Mother*, will follow the pair attempting to live together on McConaughey’s Texas ranch. The Apple TV+ series does not yet have a confirmed release date.
