Though AMC's period drama 'Hell on Wheels' may have circled the drain for a bit, the railroad-building series will officially return for a third season on Saturday, Aug. 10, returning Cullen Bohannon (Anson Mount) to the fold for another year of high-stakes Western action. The first official poster for 'Hell on Wheels' season 3 has arrived on horseback, so will it get fans excited enough to follow the series to Saturday nights?

Via HuffPostTV, our first look at 'Hell on Wheels' season 3 might have needed just a bit more time and effort in Photoshop before making its way out of the gate, but still shows Cullen Bohannon on horseback under the headline, "Outlaw in Charge."

Little has been revealed of the third season of ‘Hell on Wheels,’ other than a meaty new role for ‘The Following‘ star Jennifer Ferrin, and the fact that Cullen Bohannon will leave behind his mission of revenge to focus on the railroad expansion, leading the charge of the Union Pacific against Central Pacific Railroad. President Ulysses S. Grant has been said to appear as a recurring character, but no actor has yet been announced to take the role.

You can check out the key art for 'Hell on Wheels' season 3 below, but, in the meantime, what say you? Will you follow the show to Saturday nights when the 2-hour Aug. 10 premiere arrives?
