Josh Duhamel has shared his thoughts on the return of Ransom Canyon following its official Season 2 renewal by Netflix.
Speaking in a recent Zoom conversation covered by Forbes on June 30, 2025, Duhamel expressed gratitude for the support the show has received since its premiere.
“I’m grateful to be part of something that people really connected with,” he said from his home in Northern Minnesota.
The actor described the series as a refreshing shift toward grounded, character-driven storytelling.
Ransom Canyon, based on Jodi Thomas’s novels, debuted in April 2025 and quickly entered Netflix’s global Top 10.
The story follows several families in a fictional Texas town, with Duhamel starring as Staten Kirkland, a rancher grappling with loss, family, and changing times.
Netflix officially renewed the series on June 24, with production on Season 2 expected to begin in late 2025. Showrunner April Blair has confirmed that the writers’ room is active and that the new season may feature a six-month time jump.
The core cast including Minka Kelly, James Brolin, and Lizzy Greene is expected to return. No release date has been announced.
As anticipation grows, Ransom Canyon continues to establish itself as one of Netflix’s quieter hits, offering a blend of emotional depth and small-town realism.
