Max is previewing J.J. Abrams’ crime drama series “Duster” starring actor Josh Holloway.
An official synopsis reads: “Duster explores the life of a gutsy getaway driver for a growing crime syndicate that goes from dangerous to wildly, stupidly dangerous when a tenacious young agent comes into town hellbent on taking his crime family down.”
Duster reunites Abrams, one of the creators of Lost, and Holloway – who portrayed Sawyer on the show throughout Lost’s six-season run. The upcoming series also stars Rachel Hilson, Keith David, Sydney Elisabeth, Greg Grunberg, Camille Guaty, Asivak Koostachin, Adriana Aluna Martinez and Benjamin Charles Watson.
Duster” is set in the 1970s Southwest as a getaway driver gets entangled in a crime network that is threatened by the arrival of a young agent in town. Hilson stars as the first Black female FBI agent, and in the trailer released Wednesday, Holloway’s character, Jim, encounters Nina (Hilson).
Abrams and showrunner LaToya Morgan penned the first pair of episodes and are among the executive producers.
Duster premieres May 15 at 9 p.m. EDT on HBO and Max, with the eight episodes dropping weekly through the finale on July 3. See the trailer: HERE.
