Ballard OTT Release Date: When and where to watch Bosch spin-off show featuring Maggie Q and Courtney Taylor
Ballard OTT Release Date: If you've been waiting for the next big crime drama to watch, here's something to look forward to. A brand-new show called Ballard, a spinoff of the popular Bosch series, is set to release on Prime Video. The entire season drops on July 9. All ten episodes will be available to stream in one go. Ballard continues the story world of Bosch, but this time with a new lead character: Detective Renée Ballard, played by Maggie Q. What is Ballard about? Ballard focuses on Detective Renée Ballard, a hardworking LAPD officer who now heads the department's cold case unit. These are old criminal cases that were never solved, and her job is to dig into them and find the truth. This division is new, and it doesn't have many resources. But Ballard is committed. She's determined to give forgotten victims a voice. One of the cases she looks into involves an old serial killer, while another centres on a murdered John Doe. As she follows the clues, she uncovers something much bigger, a dark secret that might involve people inside the police department itself. Ballard is joined by retired detective Harry Bosch, played by Titus Welliver, who fans of the original Bosch series will recognize. Together, they work through old files, new evidence, and personal struggles to bring justice to people. Who's in the cast? Leading the series is Maggie Q as Detective Ballard. You may know her from action-packed roles in Nikita and Designated Survivor. She's joined by Courtney Taylor, John Carroll Lynch, Michael Mosley, Rebecca Field, Victoria Moroles, Amy Hill, Ricardo Chavira, Noah Bean, Alain Uy, and Hector Hugo. And yes, Titus Welliver returns as Harry Bosch. Although he's retired in the story, he plays an important role in helping Ballard solve the cases. Is Ballard connected to Bosch? Yes, it is. Ballard takes place in the same world as Bosch and Bosch: Legacy. In fact, Renée Ballard first showed up in the Bosch: Legacy series finale earlier this year. This new show is based on characters and stories by best-selling author Michael Connelly. Just like Bosch and Legacy, Ballard sticks to the same serious, realistic tone. Connelly is also one of the executive producers. Others involved in the bankrolling are Henrik Bastin, Michael Alaimo, Kendall Sherwood, Trish Hofmann, Jet Wilkinson, and Melissa Aouate. Jasmine Russ joins as co-executive producer under Fabel Entertainment. Jamie Boscardin Martin, Trey Batchelor, and Theresa Snider also serve as co-executive producers. If you enjoy slow-burn crime dramas with smart storytelling, Ballard might be your next binge-watch.
