Ray Donovan Trailer Shows Liev Schrieber Fixing People's Messes

Ray Donovan is the kind of man who deals with people who have woken up in bed with a dead body. The trailer above reveals that in the first thirty seconds. "This is Ray." He's a professional fixer in a town that needs lots of fixing, apparently. And he can solve any problem… except his own. As the trailer reveals, things only seem to be getting more complicated in Ray's life, as his father is getting out of prison and it doesn't look like these two guys get along so well.

Created by Ann Biderman, Ray Donovan stars Liev Schreiber as a "fixer" living in Los Angeles with his family and trying to juggle his own personal drama with the various catastrophes of his desperate clients. As the trailer indicates, that can include a guy who wakes up next to a dead woman, or a guy who wants to find out if his woman is cheating on him. Jon Voight plays Ray's father Mickey, who gets out of prison early and returns to Ray's life. Also among the cast are Paula Malcomson, Eddie Marsan, Katherine Moennig, and it looks like we'll be seeing Elliott Gould as a recurring character.

Ray Donovan is set to debut along with the eighth (and possibly final) season of Dexter on June 30.

Assistant Managing Editor

Kelly put her life-long love of movies, TV and books to greater use when she joined CinemaBlend as a freelance TV news writer in 2006, and went on to serve as the site’s TV Editor before joining the staff full-time in 2011 and moving over to other roles at the site. At present, she’s an Assistant Managing Editor who spends much of her time brainstorming and editing features, analyzing site data, working with writers and editors on content planning and the workflow, and (of course) continuing to obsess over the best movies and TV shows (those that already exist, and the many on the way). She graduated from SUNY Cortland with BA in Communication Studies and a minor in Cinema Studies. When she isn't working, she's probably thinking about work, or reading (or listening to a book), and making sure her cats are living their absolute best feline lives.
