King Richard's Aunjanue Ellis and Logan's Boyd Holbrook have joined Timothy Olyphant in FX's upcoming Justified revival, Justified: City Primeval.

However, FX announced Justified would return in the form of a limited series back in January, with Olyphant set to both reprise his role and act as an executive producer. Now FX has revealed who will star alongside Olyphant in Justified: City Primeval.
