Netflix Lands New Series from True Detective's Nic Pizzolatto Starring McConaughey & Cole Hauser

Some writers are defined by a specific genre, a signature style, or a lone masterpiece that forever stamps their name in cinematic history. However, Nic Pizzolatto is known for something far more intriguing: a singular, transformative vision that completely changed the landscape of prestige television. This is the man who created the phenomenon that was the first season of True Detective, and now, his next move has a new home with Matthew McConaughey & Cole Hauser.
This new project unites a powerful trio, building on their individual successes to create something truly special. What is the upcoming show about?

The mysterious, as yet untitled project is bringing together three powerful names: True Detective creator Nic Pizzolatto, his season one co-lead Matthew McConaughey, and Yellowstone fan favorite Cole Hauser onto Netflix. Skydance Sports is the company behind this venture. While in development, the untitled show has been referred to as The Brothers Project due to McConaughey and Hauser playing siblings.
Details are rare, but with Skydance Sports tangled, a sports angle seems highly possible. Reports from The Hollywood Reporter say that Amazon, Apple, and Netflix were all bidding for the series, with Netflix ultimately securing the rights. The news of the reunion between Nic Pizzolatto and Matthew McConaughey is particularly exciting for fans who remember the acclaimed first season of True Detective. A new chapter is coming soon on Netflix.
While viewers eagerly await more information about The Brothers Project, Netflix has a full roster of new and returning content.
Looking ahead to Netflix's slate
In the coming months, viewers can expect a new season of the wildly popular series Wednesday and the crime thriller Black Rabbit starring Jude Law and Jason Bateman. Netflix is also set to release House of Guinness, a historical drama from Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight. These offerings highlight the streaming giant's commitment to a diverse range of genres and high-profile talent. The movie lineup is equally impressive, with new original films such as the animated comedy Fixed and the crime drama Night Always Comes already available. Additionally, highly anticipated titles like The Thursday Murder Club are on the horizon, promising a mix of blockbusters and gripping thrillers.
