Duster S1

Set in the 1970s, Duster follows a gutsy getaway driver whose life goes from dangerous to wildly, stupidly dangerous when the FBI's first Black woman agent comes to town, hellbent on taking down his crime family.

From JJ Abrams (Lost, Westworld, Star Wars: The Force Awakens) and series creator and showrunner LaToya Morgan, Duster stars Josh Holloway (Yellowstone, Lost) and Rachel Hilson (This Is Us), as well as three-time Emmy winner Keith David (American Fiction), Greg Grunberg (Heroes) and Emmy nominee Corbin Bernsen (LA Law).

Duster has a 90% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with Mashable hailing the eight-part series as “nothing less than an absolute joyride.”
