Michael Dorman to star in Spectrum Originals' Joe Pickett based on the Big Sky author's novels

Deadline

The For All Mankind and Patriot vet will play the title role in the drama series based on C.J. Box’s bestselling series of novels. "Joe Pickett follows a game warden (Dorman) and his family as they navigate the changing political and socio-economic climate in a small rural town in Wyoming," according to Deadline. "Surrounded by rich history and vast wildlife, the township hides decades of schemes and secrets that are yet to be uncovered. The series will air for a nine-month exclusive run on Spectrum." This is the second adaptation of Box's work over the past year after David E. Kelley adapted his Cassie Dewell novels for ABC as Big Sky.
