Well ahead of Justified: City Primeval’s FX premiere, the cast and creative team were very up front about the idea that this follow-up season would be jettisoning 99% of Justified’s stellar cast in order to take Raylan Givens out of his badass comfort zone for an adaptation of an Elmore Leonard novel that focuses on entirely different characters. It took a bit to get used to Timothy Olyphant’s marshal being the only familiar face across the first three episodes that have aired so far, and now franchise vet Natalie Zea made all that mental work moot with an adorable social media post opposite that almost requires her character Winona to appear in the sequel drama.
More specifically, Natalie Zea was in SAG-AFTRA support mode on the strike picket lines, where she ran into her former co-star’s real-life daughter Vivian Olyphant, who made her acting debut on Justified: City Primeval as Willa Givens, the teenage daughter to Raylan and Zea’s character Winona Hawkins. While they haven’t shared the screen (yet), the two actresses were totally adorable together in the Instagram pic that they both shared.
