In the main character position for the series “Territory“, Torv portrays Emily Lawson.

Among the treasured members of the Lawson family working at Marianne Station, Emily is no exception. However, she might be hiding one or two surprises about herself…

In this television show, Dorman portrays Graham “Gray” Lawson, a character who is the son of the stern leader of Marianne Station, Colin Lawson, and brother to the late Daniel Lawson. He is married to Emily Lawson and they have two children named Marshall and Susie. Prior to his marriage with Emily, he was wedded to Marshall’s mother, who tragically passed away when their son was still young. Throughout the series, Graham grapples with issues of addiction and abuse.
Originally from Auckland, New Zealand, this actor honed his acting skills at the Queensland University of Technology in Brisbane. He first appeared on television in 2002, on an Australian drama named “The Secret Life of Us.” Since then, he’s been seen in productions like “For All Mankind,” “Patriot,” “Joe Pickett,” and the popular Netflix series “One Piece” as Gol D. Roger.

Taylor takes on the role of Colin Lawson, a stern and traditionally minded leader of Marianne Station. As the father of Daniel and Graham Lawson, father-in-law of Emily Lawson, and grandfather of Marshall and Susie Lawson, Colin has a complex web of family relationships. He boasts as many foes as allies, and trusting others with decisions concerning his home’s future is difficult for him.
Similar to the character he portrays as his on-screen daughter-in-law, Taylor hails from Melbourne. His educational background includes studies at the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts (WAAPA) located in Perth. Many viewers are probably familiar with him due to his starring role as Walt Longmire in the TV series “Longmire,” which was broadcast on A&E and Netflix.

As the diehard fan I am, I can’t help but marvel at Corlett’s captivating portrayal of Marshall Lawson in “Territory.” Marshall is none other than the rebel offspring of Graham Lawson, Emily Lawson’s stepchild, and a cherished grandson to Colin Lawson. Susie Lawson, his half-sibling, shares my family tree with him. My heart skips a beat when I think about his close friends Rich Petrakis and Sharnie Kennedy, and the secret crush he harbors for the latter. Marshall stands as the potential heir to Marianne Station, but his journey is fraught with strife as he grapples with conforming to his family’s business and overcoming past blunders.
Originally from the Central Coast of New South Wales, and with a background in modeling, the actor later transitioned into professional acting. Corlett initially gained attention for his portrayal of Caliban in parts 3 and 4 of the Netflix series Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. Additionally, he held a principal role in Vikings: Valhalla, which concluded after three seasons in 2024. Corlett’s film career began with the 2020 drama The Dry, co-starring his fellow Territory cast member Joe Klocek.

Born to Graham and Emily Lawson, I share a family bond with my half-brother, Marshall, and am proud to be the granddaughter of Colin Lawson. In this gripping series, I find myself entangled in a clandestine romance with Lachie Kirby, the privileged scion of a formidable rival family. The stakes are high, but love knows no boundaries!
Similar to her on-screen family members, Philippa Northeast hails from Melbourne, Victoria, much like her characters did in the Australian drama series The Newsreader. To date, Northeast hasn’t landed a major role in the U.S., but that is about to change as she will appear alongside Leighton Meester and Luke Cook in Good Cop/Bad Cop, an upcoming joint production by The CW, Roku, and Stan set for release in 2025.
