Ransom Canyon is bringing plenty of family drama and romance to Netflix, while the show’s stars navigate their own relationships off-screen.

The new Western series, out April 17, is set in Texas Hill Country and follows “the intersecting lives of three ranching families.” April Blair, the show’s creator, executive producer and writer, told Tudum in February 2025, “At its core, Ransom Canyon isn’t just a town. It’s an idea. It’s the painful longing for your first love. It’s the burning desire to protect your family.”

At the helm of the series are Josh Duhamel and Minka Kelly. He portrays Staten Kirkland, the owner and only occupant of Double K Ranch who is trying to “resist the outside forces” that threaten his land and job. Kelly takes on the role of Quinn O’Grady, who returns back home to Ransom Canyon after a stint as a concert pianist in New York City.

In real life, Duhamel has been married to his wife, Audra Mari, since September 2022. Kelly was previously in a relationship with Trevor Noah but has been dating Imagine Dragons frontman Dan Reynolds since November 2022.

Here’s everything to know about the real-life loves of the Ransom Canyon cast.
