Ewan McGregor reveals amazing new look for Fargo series three

Anyone who wants to see into the future, if only for a few seconds, could do worse than check out the trailer for the third series of ‘Fargo’.

It’s features heavily a rather heavy-looking famous Scottish actor, balding of pate, girthy of waist, and moustachioed of top lip.

Hurl in a shiny leather sport coat, and it’s likely a terrifying glimpse for Ewan McGregor of what might be ahead if he lets things go a bit.

The clip finds him eating in a diner with Mary Elizabeth Winstead, and making a rather sharp exit once Carrie Coon’s police chief Gloria Burgle arrives.

It’s one of two characters McGregor is playing in the show, Ray Stussy (the other being his brother Emmit), while Winstead plays Nikki Swango.

Also on the bill are stand-up star Jim Gaffigan, David Thewlis, Michael Stuhlbarg and Karen Soni.

Not much is known about the plot of this season yet, but the pedigree of the previous series makes this pretty much essential viewing.

It premieres on FX in April.
