NEW YORK, NY (July 14, 2026) - Building on the success from the first installment of Buried in Barstow, Lifetime continues its partnership with award-winning actress Angie Harmon (Rizzoli & Isles) who will executive produce and star in two news films to continue the story of former assassin Hazel King. Kristoffer Polaha (Jurassic World: Dominion) returns as Elliot, the former doctor determined to reclaim the career he lost while building a new life with Hazel and Lauren Ashley Richards (Venom) reprises her role as Hazel's daughter Joy. Megan Follows (Reign) joins the cast as Zadie, the enigmatic matriarch of a powerful construction family whose interests in Barstow soon intersect with Hazel's in increasingly dangerous ways. Harmon's daughter, Finley Sehorn, will make her acting debut in the films, portraying a young Hazel.
As part of her previously announced production deal with Lifetime/A+E Global Media, Harmon will also direct a new Ripped from the Headlines movie for the network. All three projects will debut on Lifetime in 2027.
The Buried in Barstow wheelhouse of movies follow former assassin Hazel King (Angie Harmon) as she tries to build a quiet life for herself and her daughter but her dark past keeps coming back to haunt her. As new threats and unexpected connections emerge, Hazel must navigate loyalty, motherhood, and the possibility of redemption, while confronting who she used to be.
Buried in Barstow: Blood for Blood (w.t.) and Buried in Barstow: The Reckoning (w.t.) are produced for Lifetime by Nomadic Pictures and executive produced by Angie Harmon, Michael Rosenberg, Chad Oakes, Michael Frislev, Laura Notarianni and Monica Castellanos. Both films will be directed by Alexandra La Roche. Thompson Evans wrote the script for the Blood for Blood, while the script for The Reckoning was written by Chris Pozzebon.
