Netflix is set to release a new family drama titled The Waterfront, created and produced by Kevin Williamson, known for works like Scream and The Vampire Diaries. The series, inspired by true events, follows the Buckley family as they struggle to maintain their fishing business in North Carolina amid economic challenges, leading to desperate measures. Holt McCallany stars as Harlan Buckley, who must return to the family business after his health issues and poor decisions by his family members jeopardize their livelihood. Known for his role in Mindhunter, McCallany's character embodies a morally complex figure, torn between heroism and villainy as he navigates the family's crisis. The production is being handled by Universal Television, with no confirmed episode count or release date, expected in 2025. This marks another collaboration between McCallany and Netflix after his acclaimed performance in the psychological thriller Mindhunter.
