WGN America's 'Outsiders': Ryan Hurst, David Morse First Look At January Premiere Date!

WGN America has released the First Look trailer for their upcoming new drama, Outsiders. Check out the latest footage starring the ensemble cast, David Morse (Treme), Ryan Hurst (Sons of Anarchy), and Kyle Gallner (Veronica Mars) before its official January premiere date.

As we mentioned before, the Outsiders takes place high in the vast Appalachian Mountains. The wild and criminal Farrell Clan is pitted against the outside world, which is even more corrupt then they are. The Farrell Clan have spent 200 years surviving on Shay Mountain. The Clan is up against a group of money-making investors and a small town looking to move them out as they expand. Big Foster (David Morse), leader of the Farrells, refuses to let that happen.

Lil Foster (Hurst) is a massive mountain man and the son of Big Foster. Asa (Joe Anderson) is a member of the Farrell clan looking to rejoin the family after a stint on the outside.This close-knit family of anti-heroes has to protect themselves in order to preserve their way of life.

The ensemble cast includes Thomas M. Wright, Joe Anderson, Gillian Alexy, Christina Jackson, Francie Swift and Phyllis Somerville. Creator-writer Peter Mattei also serves as executive producer alongside Peter Tolan, Paul Giamatti, Dan Carey and Michael Wimer.

According to Broadcasting Cable, WGN will premiere Outsiders, along with Underground commercial free. During the Television Critics Association press tour event, WGN America will stream the first three episodes of Outsiders on Crackle, Facebook as well as WGN and Sony's Youtube channels.

WGN president and general manager Matt Cherniss states, "We will air the series premieres of each show commercial free in order to give viewers a pure and uninterrupted introduction to these two very different words."
