Ali Larter ‘Never Believed’ She’d Leave Hollywood for Idaho
Ali Larter never imagined she would settle down in Idaho after spending most of her life in Hollywood.
“It unfolded in the most incredible way for us,” the Landman star, 48, reveals about her and husband Hayes MacArthur’s new life in Idaho in the latest issue of Us Weekly. “If you had told me this 20 years ago, even five years ago, I would have never believed that I’d be living in a very small town in the mountains.”
She continues: “We absolutely adore it, and we are so grateful to get to raise our family here. It’s really, really beautiful to live a smaller life with our children during this chapter.”
Larter explains that the idea came about during the COVID-19 pandemic when her and MacArthur’s children’s schools were shut down. (The couple, who wed in 2009, are parents to son Theodore, 13, and daughter Vivienne, 9.)
“It was just kind of a mess. And Hayes and I decided to just go on a road trip and see where it led us,” she recalls. “We drove into the mountains thinking that we could see with the kids [while they continued] Zoom school.”
As the family explored the area, they fell in love with what the local nature had to offer.
“We love being here and being back in the seasons,” she says, “The Aspen [trees] are bright and yellow right now, and to watch that is my favorite time of the year.”

Before relocating to Idaho, Larter grew up in New Jersey and lived in New York City for a decade before calling Hollywood home for more than 20 years. She always considered herself to be a city girl, she says, but after seeing what small-town life could offer her and her family, she decided to “pivot.”
“I always thought I would live in one of those big cities. I loved my time in those places, but I also feel like we didn’t know that life was available to us,” she confesses. “Even if you talked five years ago, Hayes and I thought we had to be in Los Angeles to be an actor. We weren’t at this place where we were like movie stars, and we could just go live anywhere.”
Larter was ultimately proven right as she continues to act while also putting down family roots in Idaho. She is currently starring in Taylor Sheridan’s new series Landman, which premieres on Paramount+ on Sunday, November 17. In addition to Larter playing Angela, the cast also includes Billy Bob Thorton, Demi Moore and Jon Hamm.
As the man behind Yellowstone and its myriad spinoffs, Taylor Sheridan is one of the most important people at Paramount Network — but the Yellowstone universe is only one part of his empire. While other super-producers — Ryan Murphy and Shonda Rhimes, for example — enlist other writers and directors to work on projects bearing […]
“This was actually an arduous casting process for me. I had to audition three times and then screen test,” Larter shares of the process to get the role. “So I really had to fight to get to have Angela.”
Larter adds that while she was trying to find the best way to embody her character, Sheridan would make changes to the scripts as he developed Angela’s personality.
“From the very first bit that I saw that he wrote about this woman, I knew she was just a complete firecracker and an emotional tornado,” she teases. “And then I had to embody her.”
Landman premieres on Paramount+ on Sunday, November 17.

Cattle ‘suffered’ after being shot, left to die on Idaho rangeland, police say – East Idaho News
GOODING (Idaho Statesman) — Idaho law enforcement agencies are investigating the killing and mutilation of livestock across southern Idaho in recent weeks, according to a news release that Idaho State Police shared Friday.
The agency said the State Brand Inspector, which verifies livestock ownership through brands, and multiple county sheriff’s offices are investigating incidents of cattle shot and killed in Jerome and Gooding counties. Officials said three cattle deaths have been confirmed as illegal killings, while five others are under investigation.
The news release said the killings happened in “remote grazing areas” and included multiple incidents near Wendell, and cases in Jefferson and Payette counties.
Idaho State Brand Inspector Cody Burlile told the Idaho Statesman in an email that investigators don’t believe the killing of a calf that was found “dead and partially mutilated” near New Plymouth in late April or the killing of a calf in Jefferson County are related to the other cases.

Killing livestock that are valued at $1,000 or more is a felony under Idaho law.
“This is a serious crime that directly impacts Idaho ranching families and their livelihoods,” Burlile said in the Idaho State Police news release. “These producers invest significant amounts of time, money and effort into caring for their livestock. The losses associated with these incidents are in the thousands of dollars.”
Burlile told the Statesman that five ranchers have reported suspicious cattle deaths, and the three confirmed illegal deaths were each linked to a different ranch.
“The other deaths were suspicious and in near proximity to the confirmed deaths in Gooding County, but we have not been able to positively determine foul play was involved,” Burlile said in an email.
Officials said some of the cattle were partially butchered, while others were left untouched where they died. They said it appeared some of the animals suffered before they died. Some of the cattle were cows with calves.
“When people hear about livestock being shot, they often think only about financial loss,” Burlile said in the news release. “What they don’t see is the suffering these animals endure, the impact on calves that depend on their mothers, and the effect on the livelihood of those who care for them. These aren’t just property crimes we are investigating.”
Anyone with information related to the killings is urged to contact local law enforcement or the State Brand Inspector at 208-884-7070 or ContactBrands@isp.idaho.gov.
The Idaho Cattle Association is offering a reward for tips that lead to the successful identification and prosecution of the person or people responsible, officials said.

IDAHO FALLS, Idaho — Three people overdosed from suspected fentanyl on Tuesday.
The Idaho Falls Police Department reports three people on the 500 block of Ridge Avenue and the 200 block of Short Street overdosed on fentanyl on Tuesday. Two of the overdoses were deadly.
East Idaho News reports police say the deceased individuals were identified as two women, a 24-year-old and a 63-year-old.
Police say they do not believe that the overdoses were connected to a “bad batch” of fentanyl, but rather that the users believed the substance to be a different drug.
It is not clear what drug the fentanyl was mistaken for or made to look like.
According to the release, fentanyl can be found in several forms, including powder, and may appear in different colors and consistencies, making it difficult to identify.
“Because of this, individuals may unknowingly ingest fentanyl while believing they are using a different substance,” according to the release. “These incidents serve as a stark reminder of the dangers fentanyl poses within our community.”
Fentanyl is an extremely potent synthetic opioid that is often mixed into other narcotics, sometimes without the user’s knowledge, says police. Even a very small amount can be deadly.
The Idaho Falls Police Department, along with community partners, is continuing to investigate these incidents and work to identify and disrupt the distribution of dangerous narcotics in our area.
“We encourage anyone struggling with substance abuse to seek help immediately and urge friends and family members to check in on loved ones who may be at risk,” says the release.
Important safety reminders:
Never take pills or substances that are not prescribed directly to you.
Be aware that counterfeit pills may contain fentanyl.
Call 911 immediately if someone is experiencing signs of an overdose, including slowed breathing, unconsciousness, or blue or gray skin coloration.
Carrying and administering Narcan (naloxone) can save lives during an opioid overdose emergency.
Anyone with information related to narcotics distribution in the Idaho Falls area is encouraged to contact the Idaho Falls Police Department at (208) 529-1200 or submit anonymous tips through East Idaho Crime Stoppers.
BOISE COUNTY, Idaho (CBS2) — A traffic stop along the Highway 21 corridor in Boise County led to the arrest of an Idaho City woman on methamphetamine and other drug-related charges, according to the Boise County Sheriff’s Office.
On May 21, 2026, at about 6:40 p.m., a Boise County Sheriff’s Office deputy conducting traffic safety enforcement saw a gray car traveling at a high rate of speed and initiated a traffic stop. While speaking with the driver, the deputy recognized behaviors associated with drug activity.
K9 Sage was deployed for a free open-air sniff and alerted on the vehicle, the sheriff’s office said.
Rochelle Kinney, 46, of Idaho City, was arrested on charges of felony possession of methamphetamine, misdemeanor possession of a controlled substance and misdemeanor possession of drug paraphernalia.
“This arrest demonstrates our commitment to traffic safety enforcement and addressing drug possession that endangers public safety within Boise County,” the Boise County Sheriff’s Office said.
