Riley Green is walking away from the bright lights of the music world to face a much darker reality in Montana. After years of topping the charts, the Alabama star is moving into a scripted life as a Navy SEAL in the new show Marshals. This is not just a guest spot. It is a deep dive into the grit and pain of a man named Garrett who has seen too much war.
Garrett is a hero who carries a heavy legacy of duty and scars that do not show on the skin. He shows up at the ranch looking for his old friend Kayce Dutton because he has nowhere else to turn. Seeing him trade his guitar for the life of a lawman is a bittersweet sight for anyone who values the brotherhood of our military.
