True Detective's Matthew McConaughey and Nic Pizzolatto are bringing their flat circles to Netflix

“The Brothers Project,” which desperately needs a real name, is the farthest one of these Pizzolatto X McConaughey reunions has gotten. In 2020, as McConaughey’s monologues were driving the Lincoln brand to new heights, he and Pizzolatto were announced as working on a show called Redeemer. About a year later, Pizzolatto negotiated an “early exit” from the show, and like Dora Lange, Redeemer was never heard from again.

Earlier this year, while taking a break from cyberbullying True Detective: Night Country, Pizzolatto and McCounaghey were announced to be working on a Mike Hammer movie, written by the former and starring the latter. Is that still happening? It’s hard to say, but “The Brothers Project” has a secret weapon that other PizzoConaughey collaborations lacked: another reunion. Yellowstone favorite Cole Hauser is also attached, making “The Brothers Project” a Dazed And Confused reunion for McConaughey and Hauser. With Hauser in place, we’ll probably be seeing “The Brothers Project” before Mike drops the hammer. In the meantime, Pizzolatto’s first feature, Easy’s Waltz, is expected out later this fall.
