About the show

Based on Philipp Meyer’s celebrated debut novel, Showtime’s AMERICAN RUST is a compelling family drama and a timeless story of wanting a brighter future while being held prisoner by the past. Starring Emmy winner and Tony nominee Jeff Daniels (THE COMEY RULE, THE NEWSROOM) and Emmy nominee Maura Tierney (YOUR HONOR, THE AFFAIR), the story of survival and transcendence is told through the eyes of complicated and compromised chief of police Del Harris (Daniels) of a Pennsylvania Rust Belt town full of good people making bad choices. When news of a murder rips through the town, Harris must decide what lengths he is willing to take to protect the son of the woman he loves (Tierney). The show also stars Bill Camp (THE OUTSIDER, The Queen’s Gambit), David Alvarez (West Side Story), Alex Neustaedter (Colony), Julia Mayorga (It Is Decidedly So), Mark Pellegrino (Supernatural) and Rob Yang (The Resident). The series is executive produced by Futterman, Daniels, Michael De Luca (ESCAPE FROM DANNEMORA), Adam Rapp (The Looming Tower), Paul Martino (Inside Game), Katie O’Connell Marsh (Narcos, Hannibal) for Boat Rocker Studios, and Elisa Ellis.
