"Jessica Chastain will not be joining the cast of True Detective. The Zero Dark Thirty actress was reported earlier this week to be in negotiations to play one of the lead characters in season two of Nic Pizzolatto&amp;#039;s crime drama anthology.   Rumours had suggested that the next outing of True Detective would be driven by a female-centric main cast. Representatives for Chastain and HBO have now clarified to E! News that there have been no negotiations for the actress to join True Detective. The first season of True Detective starred Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson as feuding investigators on the case of ritualistic murders in Louisiana. McConaughey confirmed in March that he would not be returning for season two. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
