Ransom Canyon renewed for second season on Netflix

June 24, 2025 by Ricky Church

Over two months since its premiere on Netflix, the streaming giant has renewed its latest Western drama Ransom Canyon for a second season.

Based on Jodi Thomas’ book series, the series stars Josh Duhamel and Minka Kelly and follows the intersecting secrets, love and lives of three ranching families in the crimson mesas of Texas Hill Country.

The series was created by April Blair, who serves as its showrunner and executive producer. At the time of its premiere, a writer’s room for a second season was already put together and production will begin on the upcoming season in September. Writers for the first season included Blair, Joe Fazzio, Paul Haapaniemi, Laura Nava and Lucas Rojas with Amanda Marsalis, David McWhirter, Meera Menon and Michael Offer directing. It is unknown how many of the writers have joined Blair again for season two’s writer’s room or if the directors will return to helm the new installments.

“I couldn’t be happier that Netflix is ready to get back in the saddle for Ransom Canyon,” Blair said. “Our dreamy little corner of Texas Hill Country is full of stories still untold, and we can’t wait to bring them to our incredible fans. Get ready for another ride.”

“Welcome to Ransom Canyon, where love, loss, and loyalty collide beneath the crimson mesas of Texas Hill Country. With three ranching family dynasties locked in a contest for control of the land, their lives and legacies are threatened by outside forces intent on destroying their way of life. At the center of it all is stoic rancher Staten Kirkland (Duhamel), who is healing from heartbreaking loss and on a quest for vengeance. Staten’s only glimmer of hope rests in the eyes and heart of Quinn O’Grady (Kelly), longtime family friend and owner of the local dancehall. But as the battle to save Ransom wages on, a mysterious cowboy drifts into town, dredging up secrets from the past. Vise tightening, Staten fights to protect the land he calls home, and the only love that can pull him back from the demons that haunt him.”

Ransom Canyon features Josh Duhamel, Minka Kelly, James Brolin, Eoin Macken, Lizzy Greene, Marianly Tejada, Jack Schumacher, Garrett Wareing, Andrew Liner, Jaren Robledo, Casey W. Johnson, Jennifer Ens, Brett Cullen, Kate Burton, Niko Guardado, Philip Winchester, Justin Johnson Cortez and Kenneth Miller.
