Raylan Givens is back and this time he’s got a sociopath in his path, in the new limited series Justified: City Primeval.
Timothy Olyphant returns as Raylan Givens, now living in Florida where he’s raising his 15-year-old daughter while still working as a US. Marshall. Clement Mansell (Boyd Holbrook) is a violent criminal that crosses Given’s radar, which shakes up his already fragile balance and threatens the life of his child.
After a great series finale, it’ll be interesting to see this character return to the screen. It is based on another Elmore Leonard novel “City Primeval: High Noon in Detroit” which bodes well when predicting its success, but will it be enough?
I’ll be there just to see Olyphant don the hat again.
Justified: City Primeval is directed by Michael Dinner and Jon Avnet and stars Timothy Olyphant, Boyd Holbrook, and Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor. It will air on July 18, 2023, on FX.
