Matthew McConaughey will not be returning for a second season of hit US crime drama 'True Detective', it has been revealed.
The Oscar winner stars in the TV miniseries as a troubled police detective who suffers a falling out with his partner, played by Woody Harrelson, as they investigate a string of local murders, Contactmusic reported.
The show, created by Nic Pizzolatto and directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga, was initially pitched to network executives at HBO as an anthology series, with a different cast of characters tackling a new storyline each season.
