“Hap and Leonard serves up humor and social commentary in an escapist drama that’s goofy, but incredibly endearing, too.”
– David S.E. Zapanta, Den of Geek

SundanceTV will air an all-new episode of the network’s acclaimed original series “Hap and Leonard: The Two-Bear Mambo,” on Wednesday, April 4 at 10PM ET/9CT. The ensemble cast is led by James Purefoy (“The Following,” “Altered Carbon”) and Michael Kenneth Williams (“The Night Of,” “The Wire”) who play lifelong best friends. Inspired by the third book in the famed series by Joe R. Lansdale, and set once again in East Texas just before Christmas of 1989, the story begins as Hap (Purefoy) and Leonard (Williams) scramble to locate Florida Grange (Tiffany Mack), who has gone missing in Grovetown, a place where sinister simmers under the surface of the town’s glossy facade.

In the fifth episode, entitled “Mambo #5,” Hap and Leonard escape the thicket and return to Grovetown more determined than ever to find Florida. At the local diner, they’re about to call Charlie and ask him to send the cavalry when Truman Brown and his gang descend upon them. Hap and Leonard try to fight their way out of the diner, but they’re overmatched, outnumbered, outgunned, and out of luck. Lt. Hanson arrives in the nick of time and breaks up the fight. Badly beaten, barely alive, their unbreakable bond shattered, Hap and Leonard are spirited to Bacon’s house by Sneed and Hanson. But Truman Brown’s henchmen are not done. They lay siege to the house and it takes Chief Cantuck to stop the mayhem. Now that Cantuck has shown his true colors and gotten Hap and Leonard on the road back to LaBorde, he too must pay the devil his due.

Additional ensemble cast includes Oscar® award-winner and multiple Golden Globe® and Emmy® award-winning actor, Louis Gossett Jr. (An Officer and a Gentleman, Roots), Emmy® and Golden Globe® award nominee Corbin Bernsen (“L.A. Law,” “Psych”), Andrew Dice Clay (Blue Jasmine, “Entourage”), Laura Allen (“American Horror Story: Cult,” Mona Lisa Smile) and musician Curtis Harding.

John Wirth (“Hell on Wheels,” “Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles”) returns as showrunner and executive producer for season three, and Jim Mickle, Nick Damici, Jeremy Platt and Linda Moran return as executive producers. Episodes will be directed by Mickle, Abe Sylvia and Michael Katleman. Joining the writing team this season is Pam Veasey, along with previous writers Nick Damici, Ione Lloyd, Jim Mickle and John Wirth.
