Why Netflix Is Better For 'Longmire'

While the writers have already reconvened to pen season 4, Longmire doesn't officially begin production until March. So what's with the look? Will Henry be sporting a full-on beard when the crime drama debuts on Netflix?

Directed by Santiago Rizzo, the film will star Phillips and Betsy Brandt, who will play the Longmire star's wife. Production is already underway, though details regarding the film remain vague.

Earlier this year A&E decided to cancel the incredibly popular Longmire after three seasons. The show had been the network's highest-rated scripted drama and the second highest-rated program total behind A&E's Duck Dynasty.

The series struggled for a few months to find a new home before being picked up by Netflix at the beginning of December.

Longmire will likely return for a fourth season on Netflix in the summer of 2015.
