What's in the box? Jodie Foster, arms folded, dressed in the beiges and browns of the Alaska State Troopers, is staring intently at a series of cardboard containers scattered across the floor of a cramped office. Joining her is boxerturned-actress Kali Reis (Catch the Fair One), her partner-in-crime-solving. ‘Let's do this,’ mutters Reis’ Evangeline Navarro, as they don black gloves and begin sifting through folders of evidence.

It's 1 March 2023 – day 87 of 112 – and Total Film has travelled to Reykjavik, Iceland, where the fourth season of HBO's procedural anthology series has been filming since the previous September. Outside, daylight is in short supply, something the cast have had to adjust to. ‘It's weird waking up at 10.30 in the morning, and it's pitch black,’ says Reis. But it serves as the perfect backdrop: after seasons two (led by Colin Farrell and Vince Vaughn) and three (Mahershala Ali, Stephen Dorff) critically underwhelmed, is going dark.
