Cast Newcomers Know Fame
Producers cast Tony nominee Hailey Kilgore as Taylor, a firefighter with a gift for singing. Kilgore rose to fame as Ti Moune in Broadway's Once on This Island revival and later starred in Hadestown and Into the Woods. On screen, she plays LaVerne "Jukebox" Thomas in Power Book III: Raising Kanan on Starz.
Michael Provost will play Ryan, a modern-day cowboy and firefighter. The role is expected to be the son of O'Donnell and Capshaw's characters, a lead part teased in earlier reports. Provost's recent credits include The Sex Lives of College Girls, The Holdovers, Fear Street: Part Two - 1978, and Horizon: An American Saga - Chapter 2.
Juani Feliz joins as Roxie, a former trauma surgeon with a thrill-seeking edge. Feliz previously filmed a backdoor pilot for a potential Equalizer spinoff on CBS, but the network passed. Her other credits include Harlem, DMZ, Fleishman Is in Trouble, Power, and The Purge: Election Year.
Rounding out the new additions is newcomer Hunter McVey. He plays Blue, described as a haunted bad boy who becomes a firefighter. Though this marks McVey's acting debut, he brings an established fan base as a fitness influencer and model on Instagram and OnlyFans.
