'Fargo' Season 5 First-Look Photos + Plot Reveal: Jon Hamm Heads West in Chilly Mystery Series

We hereby nominate Jon Hamm for 'Yellowstone' Season 5.

FX has unveiled first-look photos and plot details for Fargo Season 5, the hotly anticipated new installment in Noah Hawley's critically-acclaimed anthology series. Starring Emmy-winner Jon Hamm (Mad Men) as a grizzled sheriff in search of a housewife with a dark past, Fargo Season 5 premieres Tuesday, November 21 on FX and next-day on Hulu.

Season 5 consists of 10 episodes, to be released weekly on FX and Hulu. Set in Minnesota and North Dakota in 2019, the new season also stars Stranger Things' Joe Keery, Emmy nominee Juno Temple (Ted Lasso), Oscar nominee Jennifer Jason Leigh (The Hateful Eight), Lamorne Morris (New Girl), Sam Spruell (The Gold) and TV legend Dave Foley (The Kids in the Hall). The series, which debuted in 2014, is based off of the Coen Brothers' Oscar-winning 1996 classic Fargo. 

Here's FX's official synopsis for Fargo Season 5:

"After an unexpected series of events lands Dorothy "Dot" Lyon (Juno Temple) in hot water with the authorities, this seemingly typical Midwestern housewife suddenly is plunged back into a life she thought she had left behind.

North Dakota Sheriff Roy Tillman (Jon Hamm) has been searching for Dot for a long time. A rancher, preacher and a constitutional lawman, Roy believes that he is the law and therefore is above the law. At his side is his loyal but feckless son, Gator (Joe Keery), who is desperate to prove himself to his larger-than-life father. Too bad he's hopeless.  So when it comes to hunting Dot, Roy enlists Ole Munch (Sam Spruell), a shadowy drifter of mysterious origin.

With her deepest secrets beginning to unravel, Dot attempts to shield her family from her past, but her doting, well-meaning husband Wayne (David Rysdahl) keeps running to his mother, Lorraine Lyon (Jennifer Jason Leigh), for help. CEO of the largest debt collection agency in the country, the "Queen of Debt" is unimpressed with her son's choice in a wife and spares no opportunity to voice her disapproval.

However, when Dot's unusual behavior catches the attention of Minnesota Police Deputy Indira Olmstead (Richa Moorjani) and North Dakota Deputy Witt Farr (Lamorne Morris), Lorraine appoints her in-house counsel and primary adviser, Danish Graves (Dave Foley), to aid her daughter-in-law. After all, family is family. But Dot has an uncanny knack for survival. And with her back to the wall, she's about to show why one should never provoke a mother Lyon."
