Titus Welliver Returns in 1980s Crime Drama The Westies

Titus Welliver is making his long-awaited return to crime drama after his time as Harry Bosch came to an end. The Westies, an eight-episode series set in the early 1980s, will premiere July 12 on MGM+, and the first trailer has been released. The story unfolds as construction of the Jacob Javits Convention Center threatens to bring a huge financial windfall to Hell’s Kitchen, where the Westies, an Irish-American organized crime gang, are trying to hold their ground.

Co-creator Chris Brancato said the trailer shows "J.K. and Titus" alongside the rest of the cast in a world where the Irish gang is tied to the Gambinos while also facing problems from within. He added that younger members’ interest in cocaine trafficking fuels internal divisions and teased the Westies' clash with John Gotti and the Gambino crime family, calling some developments "stuff for Season 2." The cast includes J.K.
