Lena Headey and Gillian Anderson are gearing up to lead Netflix’s new series The Abandons, and they’ll be in pretty good company. Six supporting players joined the cast of this Western action drama, including Lucas Till, Nick Robinson, and Diana Silvers.
The Abandons was created for Netflix by Kurt Sutter and it will take us to the 1850s Oregon. It will center on a group of diverse, outlier families living on the fringe of society, coming together in an attempt to overcome the corrupt forces of wealth and power, coveting their land and trying to force them out.
Lena Headey (Game of Thrones) and Gillian Anderson (S-x Education) will lead the series as two strong-willed matriarchs with different goals in mind. Headey’s Fiona Nolan will stop at nothing to protect her family after welcoming four orphans into her home, while Anderson’s Constance Van Nes puts the mining fortune she inherited from her husband above all else.
The supporting cast of this series will now include Nick Robinson (Maid) as Elias Teller, Diana Silvers (Space Force) as Dahlia Teller, Lucas Till (MacGyver) as Garret Van Ness, Lamar Johnson (The Last of Us) as Albert Mason, Aisling Franciosi (The Nightingale) as Trisha Van Ness, and Natalia del Riego (Promised Land) as Lilla Belle.
