Disgraced Lawyer Seeks Redemption with Survivalist Ally
22 Aug
Summary
- Emmy-nominated actor pitches role for his recently-divorced lawyer character
- Lawyer character was involved in cover-up of damning documents
- Lawyer character now grappling with fallout from his past actions

As of August 22nd, 2025, a 2x Emmy-nominated actor is exploring the possibility of his recently-divorced lawyer character, Julian Markston, appearing on the sister series Tracker, alongside Justin Hartley's survivalist character Colter Shaw. The actor jokingly suggested that if Tracker ever wanted a partner for Colter, Julian could leave his law firm and start a new life, teaming up with the rugged outdoorsman.
This pitch comes after Julian's character was revealed as the one responsible for covering up the Wellbrexa documents that could have saved the daughter of Madeline, played by Kathy Bates, in the first season of the Matlock reboot. With his past misdeeds now exposed, Julian is in a precarious position, having to grapple with the ramifications of his actions. The actor teased that Julian, who was previously able to compartmentalize his life and maintain a facade of respectability, is now terrified and will have to confront his shameful past.
As the show heads into its second season, the future of Julian's character remains uncertain, but the potential crossover with Tracker could provide him with an opportunity for redemption and a fresh start, far from the complications of his previous life.
