FX Reviving ‘Justified’ Starring Timothy Olyphant for New Limited Series

Timothy Olyphant is returning as as U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens in a new Justified limited series.

Confirming last year’s reports of a possible revival, FX announced Friday a new show titled Justified: City Primeval.

The story is inspired by Elmore Leonard’s novel City Primeval: High Noon in Detroit.

Here’s the storyline: “Having left the hollers of Kentucky eight years ago, Raylan Givens now lives in Miami, a walking anachronism balancing his life as a U.S. Marshal and part-time father of a 14-year-old girl. His hair is grayer, his hat is dirtier, and the road in front of him is suddenly a lot shorter than the road behind. A chance encounter on a desolate Florida highway sends him to Detroit. There he crosses paths with Clement Mansell, aka The Oklahoma Wildman, a violent, sociopathic desperado who’s already slipped through the fingers of Detroit’s finest once and aims to do so again. Mansell’s lawyer, formidable Motor City native Carolyn Wilder, has every intention of representing her client, even as she finds herself caught in between cop and criminal, with her own game afoot as well. These three characters set out on a collision course in classic Elmore Leonard fashion, to see who makes it out of the City Primeval alive.”

“Justified was one of the most critically acclaimed shows of the past decade and an adaption of Elmore Leonard’s work that was so colorfully brought to life by Timothy Olyphant as Raylan Givens, Graham Yost and the entire team of producers, writers, directors and cast,” said Eric Schrier, president, FX Entertainment. “To have this group come together again with Tim as Raylan in a new and different Elmore Leonard story is thrilling.”

“When Justified concluded, the love and affection for this exceptional series only grew and left audiences craving more Raylan Givens,” added the president of Sony Pictures Television Studios, Jeff Frost and co-president, Jason Clodfelter. “The iconic Elmore Leonard was one of the premier authors of our time and no one has quite captured his tone and authenticity as well as this Justified team.”

Justified ran for six seasons on FX from 2010-2015 and was nominated for eight Emmy Awards, received two, and also won a Peabody Award. The series was based on Leonard’s novella, Fire in the Hole, with Leonard consulting with the producers until his death in 2013.


Dave Andron and Michael Dinner are showrunners and executive producers of the limited series, with Dinner directing. Olyphant is star and executive producer. Graham Yost, who was the show’s original showrunner, Sarah Timberman and Carl Beverly are executive producers, alongside Peter Leonard, Taylor Elmore and Chris Provenzano. The series will be produced by Sony Pictures Television and FX Productions.

Agreed

But this one seems so Natural

And it makes sense

Plus if the team is solid?

Why not?

They pretty much tried to do episodes of Justified on the Mandalorian and Boba fett

Still at the midway point of season 1. Looking forward to circling back to the show soon and hope to have it fully watched before the end of summer. It’s hard keeping up with all these shows, past and present. So many damn good series, lol. Slowly but surely trying to chip away at stuff.

 

[durham]

This was a great show from beginning to end.

I really really really hope that is not the case

If Goggins is involved then I doubt it will be. He made them rewrite his character after the first episode because he refused to play someone so vocally racist.

His character was supposed to be more racist?

 

[850credit]

Dam I got many of his books right here on my bookshelf. City Primeval, Bandits, Cat, Stitch, Labrava, Split.

One of my favorite authors

 

[ViCiouS]

His character was supposed to be more racist?

Boyd was introduced in the pilot as an intelligent bible quoting leader of white nationalists and a career criminal

He was supposed to die in the pilot -after Ava shot him

After filming the pilot the producers decided they loved Goggins and needed Boyd

so the following eps they wrote Boyd being a racist only as a grift -similar to pulpit hustling preachers - and he dropped the grift as part of his intention of going straight and atoning for his past ways

Perfect breakdown

I need to do a re watch

I knew the character arc but I can't picture him being MORE racist.

That man unfortunately can do racist so damn well with little effort. And played it in a few other roles. That's what I meant.

Walton Goggins is a phenomenal actor and it's a shame he isn't more awarded throughout his career.

I've never seen him in a role that I felt he was unfit for

Timothy Olyphant as Raylan Givens.Chuch Hodes/FX
For the first time since the incident occurred, Timothy Olyphant shared in great detail what it was like to experience the shooting on the set of FX’s Justified: City Primeval last summer in Chicago.
While recently guesting on the Conan O’ Brien Needs A Friend podcast, Olyphant described the fateful night when three cars smashed through the show’s barricades near the city’s Douglass Park and shot off what he believed were at least 100 rounds.
“It was the scariest goddamn thing,” Olyphant recalled. “It went on forever.”

The cast and crew of the limited series were accustomed to hearing gunshots, having already filmed in “bad neighborhoods” of Chicago, Olyphant told O’Brien. But this time, the stakes were much higher because trouble was heading right for them.


“You realize they’re coming around the park,” Olyphant said of the late night incident. “If the gunshots didn’t already give you a tip about what kind of people we are dealing with, they completely ignored the road closed sign where it says filming, don’t come this way.”
While most of the crew dove for cover, Olyphant said he managed to get a peek at the shooters in the second car. One leaned out a window with a pistol that had “clearly been modified” while the other stood up in the sun roof and fired a machine gun, Olyphant recalled.
“It was so frightening,” Olyphant said. “I assumed one was going to hit me. You’re just waiting.”
As Deadline first reported, Olyphant acknowledged that he grabbed a production assistant named Ashley and threw her out of the way. “The reason I know her name is that I apparently saved her life,” he told O’Brien. “It’s the weirdest thing, I’m wearing the Raylan [Givens] wardrobe standing behind this car. This is just like the show. It’s so weird. What am I doing?”
The actor went on to acknowledge that “we were a little understaffed” when it came to the presence of law enforcement. A week later, he managed to exchange stories with one cop who was on the scene that night.
He called it a “war zone.”
“He said it was one of the closer calls he ever had,” Olyphant remembered. “He said in those situations, they’re like us, they are going to take cover since [the bad guys] are shooting at each other with machine guns. Engaging in any way just becomes a bigger mess. It was f*cked up. It was definitely crazy. People will say I seemed really chill [in the moment]. That’s funny, because that’s not the way I remembered it.”


Olyphant also said it was he who spoke up the next day about potentially shutting down production. “We were supposed to shoot the next night in another bad part of town. I feel like I should speak up. I don’t want to shoot. I’m assuming the crew doesn’t want to shoot. That was the more emotional day.”
Planned for this summer, the eight-episode limited series Justified: City Primeval is a spinoff of FX’s 2010-15 hit Justified and is inspired by the Elmore Leonard crime novel City Primeval: High Noon in Detroit. It takes place seven years following the end of Justified and follows Givens after he left Kentucky for his new home base in Miami. Viewers will find Givens balancing life as a marshal and part-time father of 14-year-old Willa, played by Olyphant’s real-life daughter Vivian.
