Olivia Thirlby ("Oppenheimer", "Dredd") has joined the cast of the upcoming fifth season of the CBS firefighter drama show "Fire Country" in a series regular role. The new season also adds Eric Guggenheim as executive producer and showrunner, following the departure of Tia Napolitano, who was showrunner for the show's first four seasons.
Thirlby will play Cecilia Jade "CJ" Ryan, a quick-witted, fiercely independent, blue-collar, decorated urban firefighter who bolted her station house and city for mysterious reasons. After six months on the road, trying to outrun whatever happened, and herself, fate strands her in Edgewater where she crosses paths with Bode. Despite having no experience fighting woodland fires, Bode believes CJ has something to offer Station 42. And despite the serious culture shock, this fish out of water comes to believe rural Edgewater has something to offer her.
"Fire Country" is returning this fall for Season 5 which will be shorter, consisting of 13 episodes. The new season features returning cast members Max Thieriot, Kevin Alejandro, Jordan Calloway, Jules Latimer and Diane Farr.
Created by Joan Rater, Tony Phelan and Thieriot, the series is produced by CBS Studios. Guggenheim, Rater, Phelan and Thieriot executive produce alongside Bill Purple, Jerry Bruckheimer and KristieAnne Reed for JBTV.
