'Fargo's' Legacy Continues: New Chris Pine-Led Series Promises a Similar Dark Twist

Still from the movie 'Star Trek' (2009)

However, surpassing the legendary TV show will be no easy feat.

Chris Pine stars in a new thriller from the creator of Fargo. There's something about it that echoes the essence of acclaimed TV-series.

Noah Hawley, the American writer, producer, and director renowned for creating Fargo and Legion, has launched a new crime thriller with Chris Pine in the lead role.

The film centers on a small-town criminal in Texas who unintentionally kills his boss's nephew. Titled Nowhere Fast, as hinted by the opening of this story, it promises to be a dark comedy of errors — the kind we've come to expect and love from Noah Hawley, much like his Fargo series.

The Fargo series, created by Noah Hawley, is inspired by the Coen brothers' 1996 film, retaining its dark humor, quirky characters, and moral complexity while introducing new stories. Critics and audiences have praised it for its unpredictable narratives and strong performances, earning multiple awards, including Golden Globes and Emmys.

As of now, the series has aired four seasons, each set in a different time period with new characters, but still capturing the essence of crime and absurdity from the original film.
