Kevin Bacon is starring alongside two Alabamians in his new Amazon Prime horror-comedy series called “The Bondsman.” Gadsden, Ala., native Beth Grant, a prolific character actor, and Huntsville native Bill Billions have roles in the show about a resurrected bounty hunter tasked with tracking demons.

“The Bondsman” premieres April 3, 2025. Watch the trailer below.

In a recent interview, Billions described the show: “Kevin Bacon plays Hub Halloran, a man who is sent back from the dead as a bounty hunter for the devil to recapture escaped demons. While back, he has the opportunity to reconnect with his ex-wife, develop a relationship with his son, and try to resurrect his music career.”

The show, produced by Blumhouse, also stars singer-songwriter Jennifer Nettles and Dam Herriman.

Billions, who teaches acting at The Bill Billions Studios at Hollywood Huntsville, said he enjoyed working with Bacon. “Kevin is an actor’s actor. He loves the craft, he shows up to work and he does his job,” Billions said. “He is a great listener and a supportive collaborator.”

Billions portrays a character called Grizzly Terral in episode seven of “The Bondsman.” Terral is “either a man or a demon posing as a man … or something,” Billions said cryptically. “My character looks and behaves in an unusual manner. You have never seen anything like him. It was a joy to play the role.”

Audiences will enjoy the escapades, he said. “The writers did a great job with it, and the director and crew were excited about it,” Billions said. “I was also excited. You are all going to love it.”

Billions has appeared in numerous projects, including the Tom Cruise film “American Made,” and TV shows such as “Castle Falls” and “The Haves and the Have Nots.”

Grant stars as Kevin Bacon’s character’s mother, Kitty, despite the fact that she’s only nine years older. Grant has more than 243 acting credits listed on her IMDb page, including the films “A Time to Kill,” “Speed” and “No Country for Old Men,” and TV shows like “Dexter,” “Justified” and “Grey’s Anatomy.” Most recently Grant portrayed Charlotte Mayfair on the TV series “Mayfair Witches”

“The Bondsman” was filmed in Atlanta and Grantville, Ga., IMDb says.

Billions said that during filming he got to interact with Grant, a fellow Alabamian, and with Jennifer Nettles, a singer-songwriter. “Beth Grant is a terrific storyteller,” he said. “She has great stories about her experiences in the movie business. Jennifer Nettles is a sweetheart, as well as a strong actor (and of course an amazing singer). She was great to work with.”

Nettles and Bacon, also a musician, collaborated on an album for the show called “Hell and Back.” Bacon wrote in a Facebook post: “We made this album for our upcoming show The Bondsman, writing songs together to bring the world of The Bondsman to life through music.” Bacon shared a pre-save link to the album (find it here), which drops April 4, the day after the show.
