Josh Lucas Found His Person in Wife Brianna Ruffalo—Their Story
Fans fell for Josh Lucas back when he starred opposite Reese Witherspoon in Sweet Home Alabama (2002), and later on, folks loved seeing him portray a young John Dutton in Yellowstone, where he proved he had what it takes to shine in the western genre. Now, he’s saddling up yet again for another western flick—The Rescue. The film is slated to hit the big screen in 2027, stars Brandon Sklenar, and follows a rodeo cowboy who finds himself in a situation he never anticipated when his daughter goes missing. While the specifics of Josh Lucas’ role have yet to be revealed, knowing the way in which he brought young John in Yellowstone to life, we can’t wait to see what he brings to this role.
With such an exciting project ahead of him and a wildly successful career to look back on, Lucas is lucky to have a special someone in his corner, cheering him on through it all: his wife, Brianna Ruffalo. Josh Lucas has been married to the Los Angeles-based meteorologist since last year, and this couple is sweet as can be. Here, read all about Josh Lucas and the lovely life he’s built with his wife.

So, here’s to forever with my love, my best friend. I can’t wait to keep living this life with you.”
