Fargo Season 4

This looks like it’s going to be incredible.

Back in 2019, it was announced that Irish actress Jessie Buckley had been included in the cast for the fourth season of Fargo, alongside the legendary Chris Rock.

This was enough of a reason to be extremely excited for the release of the new season, excitement which has only increased off the back of the first trailer for the new series.

The fourth season of the show is described as a story of “immigration and assimilation, and the things we do for money”.

Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter on Thursday, showrunner Noah Hawley discussed why Chris Rock was perfect the role.

He said: “The history of America is the history of the entrepreneur. It’s the person that starts with nothing and gets to some place and then fights to hold on to it.

“I don’t know the world of stand-up comedy but it felt to me like Chris Rock embodied that spirit. Plus, he’s funny.”
