LOS ANGELES, March 11 — Ashton Kutcher heads a strong cast including Debra Winger and Sam Elliott in a new original series about a failed footballer forced to return home

Set on a Colorado Ranch, The Ranch is about a former semi-pro footballer Colt (played by Kutcher) and his new life as a ranch hand working alongside his brother ‘Rooster’ (played by Danny Masterson) and his parents with whom he’s not been in touch for over a decade.

As well as a return to the small screen, The Ranch sees Kutcher reunited with former That 70s Show co-star Masterson and with writers Don Reo and Jim Patterson.

Reo and Patterson co-produced and co-wrote Two and a Half Men and are co-creators and executive producing The Ranch. — AFP-Relaxnews
