Production is currently underway for the second season of HBO's True Detective and this week the first photos from the set emerged online.

Fan Favorite Stars Who Won't Be Appearing On 'True Detective' In 2015 

On Friday, Daily Mail leaked some images of actor Vince Vaughn on set.

Dressed in a blue shirt and dark gray suit, the 44-year-old star was in downtown Los Angeles getting his hair and makeup touched up on set in between scenes. Looking quite stoic, the actor waited patiently on the sidelines, arms at his sides and slightly curly hair carefully combed.

'True Detective' & Matthew McConaughey Amount Most-Searched For 2014 

Vaughn will be playing career criminal Frank Semyon, with actress Kelly Reilly playing his wife. The new episodes will also star Colin Farrell as detective Ray Velcoro and Taylor Kitsch as Officer Paul Woodrugh. Penned by series creator Nic Pizzolatto, the story will surround the events following the murder of a city manager in California.

Vaughn was one of the first actors to be cast this year, making quite a splash as an unlikely choice. With his primarily comedic background, fans were surprised to learn of his involvement with the dark crime drama. The actor does, however, have some dramatic work on his resume, including a Psycho remake and Into The Wild. Like season one's Matthew McConaughey, he could build a striking career around appearing on a show like this one.

True Detective will return on HBO for a second season mid-2015.
