Fargo season two will be a prequel and take place in 1979.

Executive producers Noah Hawley and Warren Littlefield added at the FX show's renewal press tour panel that none of the original cast are likely to feature, with the story following Molly's father Lou Solverson back when he was 33 years old.



In season one, several references are made to Lou's (Keith Carradine) past, including his time working as part of a task force with police lieutenant Ben Schmidt in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

At one point, Lou recalls to Lorne Malvo (Billy Bob Thornton) an incident involving bodies "stacked so high, you could've climbed to the second floor".

Hawley teased of 1979 Lou: "Lou fought in Vietnam, came home and thought he'd left the war behind and here it is. It's domestic now."

He added that in addition to Sioux Falls, scenes will take place in Luverne, Minnesota and Fargo, North Dakota. Molly, played by Allison Tolman in season one, will be 4 years old, while her mother will also be introduced.

Season two, which is to begin shooting in January, is likely to premiere at the earliest in autumn 2015.
