Nina (played by Rachel Hilson) is the first black female FBI agent while Jim (Josh Holloway) - in-between trying to get back to an episode of the Rockford Files - is the hotshot getaway driver and very cool anti-hero. Straightforward cop procedural? Erm... this is J.J. Abrams, so don't be ridiculous.
Here's how you can watch "Duster" online around the world and from anywhere with a VPN.
"Duster" premieres worldwide on Thursday, May 15 on Max.
• U.S. — HBO/Max
• CAN — Crave
• AUS — Max (Friday, May 16)
• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN risk-free
According to Abrams himself, "Duster" is very "Twisty and turny" - Abramspeak for literally anything could happen next but don't bother second-guessing him because it'll be something else. It is also shorthand for the texture and sinewy strength he builds into his shows. It's tight and over eight episodes just the right length.
Yes there are shootouts and car chases, but then there is depth to Jim and Nina and the excellent supporting cast and heart in the show which delivers grit and gloss for equal measure. The series is, believe it or not, also quite silly but not to the point that the stories suffer. You're going to love it.
