Fargo (TV series)

Fargo is an American black comedy crime drama television series created and primarily written by Noah Hawley. The show is inspired by the 1996 film of the same name, which was written and directed by the Coen brothers, and takes place within the same fictional universe. The Coens were impressed by Hawley's script and agreed to be named as executive producers.[3] The series premiered on April 15, 2014, on FX,[3] and follows an anthology format, with each season set in a different era and location, with a different story and mostly new characters and cast, although there is minor overlap. Each season is heavily influenced by various Coen brothers films, with each containing numerous references to them.[4]

However, their plans backfire, and the couple soon have to hide their involvement in two deaths, including the stepfather of former Eden Valley police chief Gloria Burgle (Carrie Coon).

Production

In 1997, a pilot was filmed for an intended television series based on the film. Set in Brainerd shortly after the events of the film, it starred Edie Falco as Marge Gunderson and Bruce Bohne reprising his role as Officer Lou. It was directed by Kathy Bates and featured no involvement from the Coen brothers. The episode aired in 2003, during Trio's Brilliant But Cancelled series of failed TV shows.[19]

In 2012, it was announced that FX, with the Coen brothers as executive producers, was developing a new television series based on the film.[20] It was later announced that adaptation would be a ten-episode limited series.[21] On August 2, 2013, it was announced that Billy Bob Thornton had signed on to star in the series.[22] On September 27, 2013, Martin Freeman also signed on to star. On October 3, 2013, it was announced that Colin Hanks was cast in the role of Duluth police officer Gus Grimly.[23] Production began in late 2013, with filming taking place in and around Calgary, Alberta.[24]

The series is set in the same fictional universe as the film, in which events took place in 1987 between Minneapolis and Brainerd, Minnesota. The first season features the buried ransom money from the film in a minor subplot.[25][26] Additionally, a number of references are made connecting the series to the film.[27]

Following the series renewal in July 2014, creator Noah Hawley revealed that the second season would take place in 1979 and focus on Sioux Falls, South Dakota, as referred to by Lou Solverson and others in the first season. The ten episodes are set in Luverne, Minnesota; Fargo, North Dakota; and Sioux Falls. Hawley agreed that this takes place before the events of the film, but he believes all the stories connect: "I like the idea that somewhere out there is a big, leather-bound book that's the history of true crime in the Midwest, and the movie was Chapter 4; Season 1 was Chapter 9; and [Season 2] is Chapter 2," he said. "You can turn the pages of this book, and you just find this collection of stories. ... But I like the idea that these things are connected somehow, whether it's linearly or literally or thematically. That's what we play around with."[28] This book was realized in season 2, episode 9, "The Castle".[29] Production on the second season began in Calgary on January 19, 2015, and completed on May 20, 2015.[30]

Production on the third season began in January 2017 in Calgary, Alberta.[31] Production on the fourth season was shut down in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[32] The season was originally scheduled to premiere on April 19, 2020, before the shutdown.[33] Filming resumed on the fourth season in late August 2020.[9]

In February 2022, FX renewed the series for a fifth season. It will be set in 2019.[10] Filming for the fifth season began as early as October 2022 in Calgary, Alberta,[34] and continued in December 2022 in High River, Alberta.[35]

"This is a true story"

As with the original film, each episode begins with the superimposed text:

This is a true story. The events depicted took place in [location] in [year]. At the request of the survivors, the names have been changed. Out of respect for the dead, the rest has been told exactly as it occurred.

As with the film, this claim is untrue.[36] Showrunner Noah Hawley continued to use the Coens' device, saying it allowed him to "tell a story in a new way".[37] Hawley has played with the realism of the story further; responding to queries about Charlie Gerhardt, a character from season 2, he stated "If he’s out there, I’d like to get a letter from him someday, telling me how he turned out."[38]

At the 2017 ATX Television Festival in Austin, Texas, Hawley further discussed the "true story" series tag: "So what does that even mean—the words 'true story'?" he said. "I really wanted to deconstruct that this year." He recalled one of the lines spoken by Sy Feltz, Michael Stuhlbarg's character: "'The world is wrong—it looks like my world but everything is different.' That's what we're exploring this year."[39]

Release

On April 15, 2014, the series made its debut on FX and FXX in Canada; the remaining episodes were shown on FXX.[40][41] The next day, it premiered in the UK on Channel 4.[42] On May 1, 2014, it premiered on SBS One in Australia,[43] and on SoHo in New Zealand.[44]

Netflix streamed seasons 1–3 in 20 regions between 2015 and 2022.[45]

intended television series based on the film Set in Brainerd shortly after the events of the film it starred Edie Falco as Marge Gunderson and Bruce Bohne reprising his role as Officer Lou It was directed by Kathy Bates and featured no involvement from the Coen brothers The episode aired in 2003 during Trio s Brilliant But Cancelled series of failed TV shows 19 In 2012 it was announced that FX with the Coen brothers as executive producers was developing a new television series based on the film 20 It was later announced that adaptation would be a ten episode limited series 21 On August 2 2013 it was announced that Billy Bob Thornton had signed on to star in the series 22 On September 27 2013 Martin Freeman also signed on to star On October 3 2013 it was announced that Colin Hanks was

film in which events took place in 1987 between Minneapolis and Brainerd Minnesota The first season features the buried ransom money from the film in a minor subplot 25 26 Additionally a number of references are made connecting the series to the film 27 Following the series renewal in July 2014 creator Noah Hawley revealed that the second season would take place in 1979 and focus on Sioux Falls South Dakota as referred to by Lou Solverson and others in the first season The ten episodes are set in Luverne Minnesota Fargo North Dakota and Sioux Falls Hawley agreed that this takes place before the events of the film but he believes all the stories connect I like the idea that somewhere out there is a big leather bound book that s the history of true crime in the Midwest and the movie was Chapter 4 Season 1 was Chapter 9 and Season 2 is Chapter 2 he said You can turn the pages of this book and you just find this collection of stories But I like the idea that these things are connected somehow whether it s linearly or literally or thematically That s what we play around with 28 This book was realized in season 2 episode 9 The Castle 29 Production on the second season began in Calgary on January 19 2015 and completed on May 20 2015 30 Production on the third season began in January 2017 in Calgary Alberta 31 Production on the fourth season was shut down in March 2020 due to

is a true story EditAs with the original film each episode begins with the superimposed text This is a true story The events depicted took place in location in year At the request of the survivors the names have been changed Out of respect for the dead the rest has been told exactly as it occurred As with the film this claim is untrue 36 Showrunner Noah Hawley continued to use the Coens device saying it allowed him to tell a story in a new way 37 Hawley has played with the realism of the story further responding to queries about Charlie Gerhardt a character from season 2 he stated If he s out there I d like to get a letter from him someday telling me how he turned out 38 At the 2017 ATX Television Festival in Austin Texas Hawley further discussed the true story series tag So what does that even mean the words true story he said I really wanted to deconstruct that this year He recalled one of the lines spoken by Sy Feltz Michael Stuhlbarg s character The world is wrong it looks like my world but everything is different That s what we re exploring this year 39 Release EditOn April 15 2014 the series made its debut on FX and FXX in Canada the remaining episodes were shown on FXX 40
