At the moment the rumor is that Rachel McAdams will play the female lead role and Taylor Kitsch will play the third mail a lead role. But there is one fine actress who has not yet been mentioning the rumors were true detective despite the fact that she may be a perfect choice for the role.English actress Keira Knightley is an interesting name to consider for the female lead of true detective. Her name hasn’t yet come up in relation to True Detective, which is amazing considering just about every single actor and actress in Hollywood has been rumored to be involved in the second season of the show.
In the early 2000s she seemed destined for stardom in Hollywood but in the middle of the decade she began to take roles that distanced herself from the big-budget Hollywood productions. She’s best remembered for her roles and the Pirates of the Caribbean movies but nightly has turned in magnificent roles in a variety of different films from different genres.
It seems she’s an unconventional choice considering the list of actresses we’ve been given but that doesn’t mean she’s not perfect for the role. Then again it’s hard to say exactly who is perfect for the role as we still know very little about the second season of the show despite the avalanche of information that is come down out of HBO over the last couple days.
With production slated to start in October for a January premiere date a female lead is going to have to be chosen in the near future. It could be nightly it could be one of the seven actresses mentioned or it could be someone who hasn’t been named yet in any reports but the bottom line is production is ramping up in an actress will need to be chosen for the female lead role for True Detective’s second season.
