JL Ranch: Jon Voight and James Caan to star in Hallmark movie

It’s an epic fight over Texas land!

Jon Voight and James Caan will star as longtime adversaries who battle over Texas homeland in JL Ranch, an original Hallmark Movies & Mysteries film airing this August, EW has learned. Melanie Griffith and Teri Polo will also star.

The movie tells the story of a veteran rancher and former sheriff, John Landsburg (Voight), who is forced to face some federal bureaucracy when an old enemy-cum-millionaire, Tap Peterson (Caan), alleges John doesn’t actually own his beloved family ranch in a small Texas town.

Griffith plays John’s former girlfriend, Laura Lee, who shows up in town when she hears he is having trouble with his land. Polo will depict Rebecca Landsburg — John’s determined, headstrong daughter — who has only remained on the family ranch because she has plans for her own homestead.

Other stars include Grant Bowler as Sheriff Whitlock; Steven Bauer as John’s trusted right-hand man, Hector; and Abby Brammell as John’s daughter, Reagan Higgins, who lives at the ranch with her husband Jerry and their kids.

Hallmark Movies & Mysteries, formerly the Hallmark Movie Channel, relaunched in 2014 and reaches 65.5 million homes.
