Everybody's favorite fixer Ray Donovan is officially returning for a sixth season – but there's more. Not only has the popular crime-turned-family-drama been renewed by US
network Showtime, it's also being relocated to New York City.
(Warning: Spoilers below if you haven't watched season 5.)
And Ray Donovan,
which has been set in Los Angeles for the past five seasons, is set to
be more "exciting" than ever before now that it has a new home.
Explaining
why moving to NYC makes sense "creatively" following the death of Ray's
wife Abby, showrunner David Hollander promised "new challenges" for
Ray.
"Fashion,
media, finance, theatre, culture. It's going to present new challenges
for Ray which means new opportunities for us as dramatists," he said in a
statement.
"Ray came to Los
Angeles to build a life for himself and his family. They're not there
anymore. Ray's career has changed and he is looking for a place to
rebuild his life."
Teasing another heavy season ahead, Hollander also hinted that Ray is heading to New York "to help himself".
