Netflix today dropped a teaser (below) with first look photos and a date announcement for the upcoming limited series, Florida Man starring Edgar Ramírez (Jungle Cruise, The Undoing). The 7-episode series will premiere globally on April 13, 2023 and is created by Donald Todd (This Is Us) who also serves as showrunner and executive producer.
The cast also includes Anthony LaPaglia (Annabelle: Creation, Without A Trace), Abbey Lee (Lovecraft Country, Old), Otmara Marrero (Connecting…, StartUp), Lex Scott Davis (Toni Braxton: Unbreak My Heart, The First Purge), Emory Cohen (The OA, Brooklyn), Clark Gregg (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., The New Adventures of Old Christine), Isaiah Johnson (David Makes Man, Home Girls), Paul Schneider (A House on the Bayou, Lars and the Real Girl), and Lauren Buglioli (A Jazzman’s Blues, The White Elephant).
Florida Man Logline
When a struggling ex-cop (Edgar Ramírez) is forced to return to his home state of Florida to find a Philly mobster’s runaway girlfriend, what should be a quick gig becomes a wildly spiraling journey into buried family secrets, and an increasingly futile attempt to do the right thing in a place where so much is wrong. Florida Man, from creator Donald Todd, is a wild odyssey into a sunny place for shady people.
Executive producers also include Jason Bateman and Michael Costigan for Aggregate under their Netflix first look deal.
Creator and showrunner Donald Todd, who was born and raised in the southernmost US peninsula, told Tudum: “I never stopped thinking about why Florida is Florida. Florida is a thin layer of porous crust on top of a hundred feet of water, and it’s maybe a few feet above sea level… it might all sink. So when you feel that everything is temporary, you take what you can when you can get it. A ‘Florida man’ is someone who’s proudly independent and doesn’t live by your code, which means he doesn’t live by any code.”
All 7 episode of Florida Man will drop on Netflix on April 13, 2023.
