Posted Filed under

HBO have dropped a trailer for Duster, their new retro crime thriller from J.J. Abrams and LaToya Morgan.

The show reunites Lost‘s Josh Holloway with Abrams, and also stars Rachel Hilson (Love, Victor).

Here’s the setup:

Set in the 1970s Southwest, 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.

The show’s wider cast includes Keith David, Sydney Elisabeth, Greg Grunberg, Camille Guaty, Asivak Koostachin, Adriana Aluna Martinez, and Benjamin Charles Watson.

The series’ first two episodes are penned by Abrams and Morgan, and directed by Steph Green (Ahsoka). For more on the show, Esquire has a great article with comments from the show’s creators.

The eight-episode series premieres in the US on Max from 15th May 2025.

Unfortunately, there’s no suggestion of pickup by a UK broadcaster yet, let alone a release date. We’ll keep you posted on Duster.
