The first two episodes of Outer Range are now available on Amazon Prime Video, and the series has quite the cast.
Centring around Josh Brolin’s Royal Abbott, a rancher fighting for his land and family, the series is set to examine how we grapple with the unknown, after the Abbott’s daughter-in-law Rebecca disappears.
The genre-bending series will drop two new episodes each week, so we don’t have too long to wait to find out more about how things will develop for the Abbotts and their rival neighbours the Tillersons.
