The first two episodes of crime thriller series Duster are out now on OSN+, with a weekly release planned until July 3.
Set in the 1972 southwestern United States, the HBO Max show follows the FBI’s first black woman agent Nina Hayes (Rachel Hilson) as she is working to stop a crime with the assistance of gateway driver Jim Ellis (Josh Holloway).
The show marks Josh’s return to television since his role as Roarke Morris in the 2020-2021 American neo-western drama show Yellowstone, as well as the actor’s reunion with show creator J J Abrams. Josh worked with Abrams on the popular science fiction adventure series Lost (2004-2010) where he famously portrayed the protagonist James ‘Sawyer’ Ford.
In an interview, Josh compared working with the writer and director to ‘putting on your favourite pair of jeans’.
“J J called me out of nowhere,” Josh recalled. “I was sitting on the couch with my wife going, ‘When am I ever going to work again? What is going on in this industry?’ And then boom, phone call, and J J said, ‘You got a minute?’ And he proceeded to pitch me this idea for this show and I was blown away immediately,” he added.
