Netflix today announced a series order for Ransom Canyon, a new family drama series set in Texas and starring Josh Duhamel (The Lost Husband, Transformers, Love, Simon) and Minka Kelly (Euphoria, Friday Night Lights, Titans).
Ransom Canyon Logline: Ransom Canyon is a romance-fueled family drama and contemporary western saga that charts the intersecting lives of three ranching families, all set against the rugged expanse of Texas Hill Country.

Duhamel will play Staten Kirkland, owner and sole occupant of the sprawling Double K Ranch. Steadfast and stoic, Staten leads the charge to resist outside forces threatening his way of life and the land that he loves. Kelly plays Quinn who has often found herself in the shadow of others, but after a stint in New York pursuing her career as a concert pianist, she has returned to Ransom Canyon to carve out a new path for herself.
Written, created, and executive produced by April Blair (Wednesday, All American), Amanda Marsalis (Ozark, Umbrella Academy) is set to direct the first two episodes.
