Bateman, who also serves as an executive producer and director on Ozark, stars as Marty Byrde with Linney playing his wife, Wendy. The Byrdes and their teenage kids, Charlotte and Jonah, are, for all intents and purposes, an ordinary family with ordinary lives. Except for the job of Marty, a Chicago financial advisor who also serves as the top money launderer for the second largest drug cartel in Mexico. When things go awry, Marty must uproot his family from the skyscrapers of Chicago and relocate to the lazy lake region of the Missouri Ozarks.

This dark drama, which also stars Esai Morales (Chicago P.D., NYPD Blue), Julia Garner (The Americans, We Are What We Are), Marc Menchaca (Homeland, Generation Kill), Jason Butler Harner (Ray Donovan, Alcatraz) and Harris Yulin (Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, 24), explores capitalism, family dynamics and survival through the eyes of (anything but) ordinary Americans.

Bateman, who previously helmed the feature films Bad Words and The Family Fang, himself directs the Ozark pilot.

Created by Bill Dubuque (The JudgeThe Accountant), the series premieres on July 21 on Netflix with 10 hourlong episodes.
