Jefferson White is joining the cast of Marshals for its second season in a recurring role, reprising his character Jimmy Hurdstrom from the Yellowstone franchise. The character is described as a ranch hand who progressed from a troubled criminal background to becoming a resilient cowboy.
Marshals stars Luke Grimes, who also played a character in Yellowstone, as Kayce Dutton, a member of an elite U.S. Marshals unit combining cowboy and Navy SEAL expertise to enforce justice across Montana. The second season, created by showrunner Spencer Hudnut, is set to premiere on October 4 on CBS at 8 p.m., with streaming available on Paramount+. The premiere follows what was described as a record-breaking cliffhanger conclusion to the first season.
White’s character Jimmy was a significant presence in the original Yellowstone series and was originally intended to headline a spinoff called 6666, set at the real Four Sixes ranch in Texas. The project was announced in 2021, and the flagship series wrote off Jimmy by sending him to work at the West Texas ranch during its fourth season finale. However, franchise creator Taylor Sheridan ultimately cancelled the spinoff after acquiring the property, stating he could not ethically fictionalize stories set at a working ranch where real cowboys and their families live and work.
White’s recent television and film credits include appearances in The Alienist, House of Cards, Manhattan, The Americans, and How to Get Away with Murder, as well as films Civil War and Eileen. Upcoming projects include roles in The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping and Rambo. Marshals is produced by Paramount Television Studios and 101 Studios, with executive production from Taylor Sheridan and other industry figures.
