Another Irish actor set for the hit HBO show.

Colin Farrell won’t be the only Irishman on the set of season two of True Detective after Timothy V Murphy joined the cast today.

Who? Yeah, that was our response too.

Timothy is from Tralee and has carved out a successful career in Hollywood with roles in Sons of Anarchy, Criminal Minds, 24 and NCIS: Los Angeles among others on his résumé.

The Kerry actor will play a Russian gangster (obviously) named Osip Agranov in True Detective opposite Farrell, Vince Vaughn and Rachel McAdams.

Have a look at this interview he did last year, the Kerry accent is as strong as ever.

We’re looking forward to the show even more now. Let’s hope it can reach the standards of season one.
