Things You Might Not Know About 'Justified'For five seasons, Timothy Olyphant has redefined the 2. U. S. Marshal Raylan Givens on the FX series Justified. Tonight, the show—based on a short story by the late, great Elmore Leonard, who also served as an executive producer—will begin its sixth and final season. If the previous five seasons are any indication, it’s fair to assume that there will be a body count when Raylan tips his Stetson for the final time. Here are 2. 1 things you might not know about Graham Yost’s Emmy- winning series. 1.

RAYLAN GIVENS EXISTED BEFORE JUSTIFIED. Though Justified, and its pilot episode in particular, is based on Elmore Leonard’s 2. Fire in the Hole," Raylan Givens made his literary debut in 1. Leonard’s novel Pronto, and again in 1. Riding the Rap. 2.

STEVEN SEAGAL IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SERIES’ TITLE. In the early stages of production, the series’ working title was "Lawman." “And then Steven Seagal’s reality show [Steven Seagal: Lawman] came on and we felt that there would be too much confusion, so we had to come up with something else,” series creator Graham Yost told IESB in 2. And someone at FX came up with Justified because it was used as a line in the pilot.”3. EVEN BEFORE JUSTIFIED, LEONARD WAS ONE OF YOST’S BIGGEST INFLUENCES.“Elmore was an influence—or at least someone I aspired to emulate—even before Justified,” Yost told TV Dudes when asked about the writers that inspired him.

YOST GOT HIS START ON HEY DUDE. Yost’s first paying gig in Hollywood was as a writer on the Nickelodeon series Hey Dude, which ran from 1. It was very low- budget,” Yost recalled to A. V. Club in 2. 01. We were shooting on location at a real dude ranch in Tucson, so it looked pretty good for the paltry sum.

We’d shoot an episode in three days so we were shooting 1. It was a great experience. The budget was a challenge, but the big challenge was just that we weren’t necessarily the best writers; we all became better.” 5. YOST ALSO WROTE FOR FULL HOUSE.

Shortly after his Hey Dude gig ended, Yost spent a couple of months as a writer on Full House. I was on Full House for nine and a half weeks,” Yost told A. V. Club. “I was hired on a probationary period of 1. One Way Full Movie. I quit four days before I was going to be fired. It’s funny, I’ve run into Dennis Rinsler, who was one of the showrunners there with Marc Warren, and they have never confirmed for me that I was going to be fired, but I certainly felt like I was going to be fired … I was told that I was hired because they wanted edge, and a show like that really didn’t want edge. It was a big room, and it was competitive, and it was hard to get stuff in.

I just felt like I was completely not the right fit. Although I really liked everyone in the room, it just didn’t feel like a good fit. So I quit, and then happily Speed sold a couple days later.” 6. LEONARD WAS A FAN OF OLYPHANT’S PORTRAYAL.

Before his passing, Leonard was very vocal about being a fan of Justified—particularly with the way that Olyphant interpreted the character of Raylan. In 2. 01. 2, The Wall Street Journal asked Leonard whether the series had influenced the way he visualized the character in his writing, to which he responded: “No, because Tim Olyphant plays the character exactly the way I wrote him.

I couldn't believe it. He's laidback and he's quiet about everything, but he says, if I have to pull my gun, then that's a different story. And it works. There are very few actors that recite the lines exactly the way you hear them when you're writing the book. George Clooney [in the 1. Out of Sight] was one. He was very good.” 7.

OLYPHANT ISN’T THE FIRST ACTOR TO PORTRAY RAYLAN GIVENS. James Le. Gros got there first, playing Raylan Givens in the 1. TV movie adaptation of Pronto. And Le. Gros has popped up on Justified, too: In 2.

Wade Messer. 8. NICK SEARCY WAS THE FIRST CHOICE FOR ART MULLEN.“When I read Elmore’s story 'Fire in the Hole,' and I got to the character of Art Mullen, I just knew that that would be Nick Searcy,” Yost told IESB. I worked with him on From the Earth to the Moon, and he’s from the South and he has that avuncular, good sense of humor and yet is believable as a boss.” 9. WALTON GOGGINS HAD TO BE CONVINCED TO PLAY BOYD CROWDER.“I've known Walt for years, and when we first mentioned the idea of him playing Boyd, he had concerns—the stereotype of the Southern racist and all that,” Olyphant recently told Rolling Stone. He's from the region [Goggins was raised in Georgia] so he was sensitive about putting that out there in a one- dimensional way. You know, a lot of actors, we aren't that special; you get a well- written scene, and it's virtually actor- proof.

But during the casting process, we had a list of people we had in mind for Boyd and the more I looked at his name on that list, the more I kept telling everyone involved, ‘Look, I stand corrected. I've been saying anyone could do it, but we really need to get this specific guy to play Boyd. He'll bring something special to it.’ And the son of a bitch did.

It’s hard to imagine Justified without the frenemy friction between Raylan and Boyd. But even when the series began shooting, the plan was for Boyd to be killed off in the pilot. Walton Goggins was initially resistant to the idea of playing Boyd, but we talked him into it,” Yost told IESB. And that became a huge get for the show because he really made Boyd come alive and become someone that, in Elmore’s story and then in the pilot as we shot it, dies, but the decision was made to keep him alive.” 1. THERE WAS NO ARLO IN "FIRE IN THE HOLE."In the series, Raylan’s criminal father Arlo serves as an impetus for his choice to stay on the right side of the law. But in the original short story, Raylan’s daddy issues weren’t quite so prominent. In Elmore’s story ..

Raylan’s father is dead and he died of black lung,” Yost told IESB. He was a miner. I just decided, ‘Well, let’s keep him alive and let’s have him be a criminal.’ That’s what Raylan rebelled against, and that’s why he became a U. S. Marshal. So, right there, that dynamic gave us something to explore.”1.

TO GET LEONARD’S VOICE RIGHT, THE WRITERS BECAME READERS. One of Justified’s hallmarks is its ability to perfectly replicate Leonard’s whipsmart dialogue. Watch Deserted Download. And much of this comes from the first assignment Yost gave after assembling his team of writers: Read! When we started the writing room, we bought as many of Elmore’s books as we could find and divided them up,” Yost told IESB.

Everyone took a couple on and read them, so they would get into the rhythms and get the style. One of the great things that I got to do in writing the pilot was actually retype a lot of Elmore’s style and put it in the script. It was interesting. Just the act of retyping it let me get into the language a little bit more.”1. LEONARD ENVISIONED RAYLAN WITH A SMALLER HAT.

Raylan’s signature Stetson is a bit larger than Leonard imagined it. The critics have been calling Raylan a cowboy with his hat,” Leonard told Salon. The hat came unexpectedly [with the show].

I had described kind of a businessman’s Stetson, a smaller Stetson … But evidently he found his own hat and design. It’s perfect. I don’t see him bareheaded. He seems to need a hat to define who he is.”1. THERE IS ONLY ONE BACKUP FOR THE HAT ON SET AT ANY GIVEN TIME. Raylan’s hat is one of the character’s key accessories (second only to his gun, perhaps—though he did spend much of season five hat- less). But there’s not a closetful of Stetsons on set should the main hat sustain damage during shooting. Over the holidays, our costumer took the hat and asked if it was okay to have it refit,” Olyphant told Rolling Stone in 2.

It's taking a heck of a beating.’ So I said, ‘Of course,’ and she said, ‘God, I had the hat at my house and I was constantly locking the doors… I can't be the person who loses that hat.’”1. YOU CAN BUY YOUR VERY OWN RAYLAN HAT. Want to channel your inner U.
