LOS ANGELES, Feb. 4 (UPI) -- Geoff Stults, Sam Neill and Steven Weber are set to star in the new Minnesota-set drama series "Happy Town," ABC said Thursday.

The show is to debut April 28.

"The residents of the sun-splashed town of Haplin, Minn. -- also known as 'Happy Town' -- have enjoyed an uneasy peace for the past five years, but that is about to change," the network said in a news release. "Still haunted by a number of unsolved kidnappings, Haplin now faces a disturbing new crime that brings all of its unresolved fears to the surface."

The series will also co-star Lauren German, Amy Acker, Sarah Gadon, Robert Wisdom, Jay Paulson and Ben Schnetzer.

Recurring stars will include Frances Conroy, Abraham Benrubi, M.C. Gainey, Peter Outerbridge, Warren Christie and Sophia Ewaniuk.
