The Bondsman: Everything You Need To Know About the Amazon/Blumhouse Show
Get ready for a new, devilishly intriguing series hitting Prime Video/Amazon soon. Blumhouse TV’s “The Bondsman,” starring Kevin Bacon, is set to shake things up with a unique twist on the typical bounty hunter storyline. In this show, Bacon plays Hub Halloran, a bounty hunter with a macabre new target—demons who have escaped from Hell and are causing chaos on Earth.
Unlike your typical bounty hunter show, Hub isn’t chasing down criminals; he’s after demons hell-bent on causing trouble. The series promises to be violent, bloody, and packed with scares, but it also promises moments of humor and heart. As Bacon himself describes it, “It is very violent and has a lot of blood and scares, but it also has some tongue-in-cheek aspects. It’s oftentimes funny, and it also has a lot of heart.”
The show’s unique premise revolves around Hub’s journey back from the dead, where he must confront his past mistakes and carry out assignments from the Devil himself. Alongside Jennifer Nettles, who plays his former wife Maryanne, Hub navigates a world where demons must be caught and returned to Hell, with a surprisingly absent Devil who operates more like a prison warden.
Assisted by Jolene Purdy’s character, described as “Hell’s regional manager in this part of Appalachia,” Hub embarks on a mission to seek redemption and a second chance at life. The eight-episode season is set to drop on April 3, 2025, promising a thrilling and unique take on the classic bounty hunter genre. Get ready for demons, drama, and a devilishly good time with “The Bondsman.”
