U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens is making his way back to our small screens. 

On Jan. 14, FX announced that Timothy Olyphantled series Justified is getting a revival. Justified: City Primeval, a limited series by Sony Pictures Television, will reunite the cast of the original drama, with Olyphant reprising his iconic role as Raylan Givens. He'll also executive produce the series, which centers on a new story inspired by Elmore Leonard's crime novel City Primeval: High Noon in Detroit.

The Emmy Award–winning original series aired from 2010 to 2015, and now we find Raylan living in Miami, "a walking anachronism balancing his life as a U.S. Marshal and part-time father of a 14-year-old girl," according to the show's description. "His hair is grayer, his hat is dirtier, and the road in front of him is suddenly a lot shorter than the road behind." 

Hey, his hair may be grayer, but he is just as handsome as before!

"Justified was one of the most critically acclaimed shows of the past decade," president of FX Entertainment Eric Schrier said in a statement, "and an adaption of Elmore Leonard's work that was so colorfully brought to life by Timothy Olyphant as Raylan Givens, Graham Yost and the entire team of producers, writers, directors and cast."

He continued, "To have this group come together again with Tim as Raylan in a new and different Elmore Leonard story is thrilling."
