From classic older shows like M.A.S.H. and In the Heat of the Night to Friday Night Lights, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Fargo, there’s a surprisingly strong track record of hit movies becoming successful TV shows. Blue Ridge – the new Cowboy Way original series based on the 2020 movie of the same name – is hoping to become the latest movie-turned-show to strike gold.

Set to premiere on Cowboy Way Sunday, April 7 at 8:00 P.M. ET, Blue Ridge finds Johnathon Schaech (That Thing You Do!, D.C.’s Legends of Tomorrow) reprising his role of Sheriff Justin Wise, as well as Sarah Lancaster (Chuck, Everwood) returning as his ex-wife Elli Wise. Here’s a description of the show, courtesy of Cowboy Way:

Based on the 2020 film of the same name, Blue Ridge breaks the mold of traditional procedural dramas, bringing action, heroism, and heart to every investigation. When ex-Green Beret Justin Wise accepted the position as sheriff of a small Appalachian town, he expected quiet days, more quality time with his beloved daughter, and hopefully, winning back the heart of his ex-wife. Once he wears the badge, he soon realizes that the seemingly sleepy town is anything but. Long-standing feuds, disgruntled criminals, unruly travelers, and cold-blooded murders wreak havoc and threaten the safety of the citizens Justin promised to protect. The new sheriff and his two deputies must put their personal lives and relationships in jeopardy to fight the criminal forces trying to rip Blue Ridge apart.

The new series co-stars A. Martinez (Longmire, Days of Our Lives), Taegen Burns (The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers) and Tom Proctor (Justified, The Ballad of Buster Scruggs). Bruce Boxleitner (Babylon 5), Max Martini (The Unit), and popular influencer Lev Cameron will appear as guest stars.
