Anson Mount, SoA '98, (that guy from "Crossroads" who drove Britney Spears and her friends across the country) will play the lead role in the new AMC TV series 'Hell on Wheels', premiering tonight at 10 p.m. EST. The show, set in 1865, centers around former Confederate soldier Cullen Bohannon (Mount) who is on a quest for vengeance against the Union soldiers who murdered his wife. His journey leads him to the Union Pacific Railroad's construction of the first Transcontinental Railroad. Check out a trailer for the new Western below.
