Set in the icy wilderness of Alaska, "The Last Frontier" follows Frank Remnick, the lone U.S. marshal in charge of the region. Played by Jason Clarke, best known for his role in "Zero Dark Thirty," Frank is tasked with protecting a town after a prison transport plane crashes, freeing violent inmates.

The first two episodes of "The Last Frontier" will be released on October 10, with new episodes following every Friday until December 5. Co-created by Jon Bokenkamp and Richard D'Ovidio, this series is a must-watch for fans of thrilling dramas.

The teaser for "The Last Frontier" offers a glimpse into the chaos as the prisoners, shackled on the plane, watch as it catches fire and crashes. The plot suggests that the crash was not an accident but a deliberate part of a well-crafted plan with far-reaching and devastating implications.

For those who enjoy a good prison thriller, "The Last Frontier" might remind you of the classic 1997 movie "Con Air." However, with its unique setting and captivating characters, "The Last Frontier" promises to carve its own path in the world of thrilling entertainment.
