During an interview with TV Insider, Kutcher was asked about working with the mustached tough guy.
“Sam is just a powerhouse, man. Those are the scenes I get most excited about, when I get to go head-to-head with him, because he’s so authentic. He definitely keeps me on my toes.”

Kutcher went on to explain that Elliott is most important part of The Ranch, and that their dynamic on-screen is what draws viewers into the series.
“He’s the central axis to the show in many ways. And this was something else we realized tooโthere wasn’t really a strong father-son show on TV. Generationally, we’re constantly redefining what it means to be a man. Sam captures that so beautifully.”
It’s hard to think that any fan of The Ranch would disagree with Ashton on that one!
The third installment of The Ranch is currently streaming on Netflix.
