What Is Netflix’s Ransom Canyon About?
Netflix’s Ransom Canyon focuses on three families in the Texas hill country littered with ranches. They are all vying for the future of this area of land and the old-fashioned ranch lifestyle. Staten Kirkland (Duhamel) who owns the Double K Ranch, is trying to pivot, after the heartbreak and loss of his wife. Now that Quinn O’Grady (Kelly) is back in town, he has found some respite from pain. Quinn, a talented pianist, has fled the big city for the quiet of her hometown. She now owns a lavender farm and owns the local dancehall. This is a far cry from the city lights.
Next, Cap Fuller (Brolin) owns Fuller Ranch. His ranch has seen better days. However, Cap has suffered extreme loss, and his salty demeanor has only gotten worse.
Lastly is the Bar W Ranch owned by Davis (Macken). He has a new vision for this part of Texas. Davis wants to make more money with new ideas. He and Stanton have always been rivals. However, now that Quinn has arrived, things just escalate.
Who will control the land and leave their legacy for generations to come?
