According to Deadline, Issa Lopez will be writing the script for the fourth season of the series. Lopez is a Mexican film producer, and writer.

According to Collider, Lopez will write, direct, and also be the executive producer of the pilot. The publication also stated that Barry Jenkins will also have the role as executive producer for the fourth season.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Nic Pizzolatto, who created the show, most likely won’t have much of a role on with the new season if it is officially picked up for a full run. There is a potential for Pizzolatto to be given the title of an executive producer. Due to the fact that the fourth season is still at the very beginning stages of production, there is no news of cast members or storyline at the moment. With Isasa Lopez given the task of writing the script for True Detective, it seems the show will have great dialogue for the actors to work with. Lopez is known for a few films, such as Tigers Are Not Afraid, which garnered her a list of nominations and awards.

The series took place in the Ozarks, with detectives trying to solve a gruesome crime involving two children. The first season received high praise and reviews, leading to nominations such as an Emmy Award for Outstanding Drama Series.
The premise of the show has more of a darker tone, and is known for its storyline and cinematography.
