Jon Hamm, Juno Temple to lead Fargo s5

Okay Fargo season 5... you have our attention...

Sometimes you hear some casting and it just clicks. Of course Jon Hamm is going to be in a new season of Fargo. That makes all the sense in the world - he was made for Fargo.

He'll be joined in the new season by Ted Lasso star Juno Temple, currently seen in the watchable (faint praise) Paramount+ show The Offer. Also starring is Jennifer Jason Leigh, another actor who fits Fargo like a glove.

What we know about the new season isn't a lot. We know that the new season is set in 2019 and asks the questions:

1) when is a kidnapping not a kidnapping?

2) What if your wife isn’t yours?

These questions make me assume the nefarious Riddler is behind the caper.

We also know some character names. Hamm will play a guy named Roy, Temple will play Dot, and Leigh will play Lorraine.

Season 3 of Ted Lasso to be the last

In other Juno Temple-related news, it seems to be firming up that the third season of Ted Lasso will be its last.

In an interview with the Sunday Times, writer and co-star Brett Goldstein commented that they are approaching writing season 3 as though it will be the last. I really like that they are planning to go out while it is on top.
