EXCLUSIVE: Matt Barr will play Hoyt Rawlins again in the network’s pilot ‘Walker: Independence.’ Barr has been been tapped as the male lead in the project, executive produced by Walker’s Jared Padalecki
origin story, is set in the late 1800s and follows Abby Walker, an affluent Bostonian whose husband is murdered before her eyes while on their journey out West. On her quest for revenge, Abby crosses paths with Hoyt Rawlins , a lovable rogue in search of purpose. Abby and Hoyt’s journey takes them to Independence, Texas, where they encounter diverse, eclectic residents running from their own troubled pasts and chasing their dreams.
Barr’s Rawlins, a gambler and an outlaw who lays low in the town of Independence. Cocky, confident, brash and a bit foolhardy, he’s been having an on-again, off-again affair with rancher’s daughter Lucia Montero — but after meeting Abby, Hoyt’s wandering eye appears to have frozen in place.
It is unclear how the 1800s’ Abby Walker and Hoyt Rawlins are related to present day’s Abeline Walker and her sons, Cordell Walker and Liam Walker , as well as Cordell’s best friend Hoyt Rawlins but Barr’s casting hints at a direct link between 2020s and 1800s Hoyt. Seamus Fahey wrote the pilot based on a story by him and Anna Fricke; Larry Teng is directing. Fahey, Teng and Padalecki exec produce with Fricke and Laura Terry via their Pursued By a Bear banner alongside Rideback’s Dan Lin and Lindsey Liberatore.
