Who Plays Peter Prior On True Detective: Night Country?

Finn Bennett's first screen credit came in 2010, when he portrayed the young James Devereaux in an episode of the British World War II detective show "Foyle's War." However, the vast majority of his roles are from 2017 onwards, and they largely consist of relatively minor parts. He had a recurring role as Ewen in the BBC drama "Liar" in 2017, and the next year, he played Si Warner in the BAFTA Award-nominated miniseries "Kiri." 

He's also had roles in films like William Nicholson's 2019 romantic drama "Hope Gap" and Aneil Karia's 2020 thriller "Surge," while also appearing in an episode of the Emmy-nominated fantasy show "The Nevers." Apart from his work in TV shows and movies, he's also worked as a stage actor. He appeared in Polly Stenham's play "Tusk Tusk" as a child actor, and returned in 2018 as Boy in Robert Alan Evans' "The Woods." 

Bennett's pace has noticeably picked up in recent years, with four different parts in 2021 alone. "True Detective: Night Country" marks the biggest role on his résumé, and considering how well he holds his own in scenes with industry veteran Jodie Foster, it's clear that the young actor came prepared for the spotlight.
