Holt McCallany Set to Star in Kevin Williamson’s Netflix Drama Series THE WATERFRONT

Holt McCallany (The Iron Claw, Mindhunter) is set to star in a new Netflix family drama series titled The Waterfront, which is written and executive produced by the creator of Scream, Kevin Williamson.

The series is inspired by true events, and the story “dives into the flawed Buckley family as their attempts to retain control of their crumbling North Carolina fishing empire drive them to increasingly dangerous means to keep themselves afloat.”

McCallany will take on the role of patriarch Harlan Buckley “who has built up the Buckley fishery business with his dad, even veering into some illegal territory in the 1980s.

“Since his two heart attacks, Harlan hasn’t changed his lifestyle, but his absence from the family business left it in the hands of his wife, Vicki, and his son, Cane — whose desperate, foolish decisions have left Harlan with no choice but to take the reins once again.

“Is Harlan a hero? A villain? It’s a hard call. He’s just a man who loves his whiskey.”

This seems like another great project for Holt McCallany. He’s a great actor, and it’s good to see him land another lead role in a series.
