Fire Country Welcomes Josh McDermitt in a Key Recurring Role for Season 4

CBS’ drama Fire Country has officially added Josh McDermitt to its Season 4 cast. McDermitt, known for his role as Dr. Eugene Porter on The Walking Dead, will appear in a recurring role starting with the episode airing this Friday, December 5.

McDermitt portrays Landon, a quietly upset and meek figure who serves as Chloe’s partner and a paternal presence to her son, Tyler. The characters recently lost their home to wildfires, adding emotional depth to Landon’s storyline.

This new arc also includes Alona Tal, who reunites with her SEAL Team co-star Max Thieriot. Tal plays Chloe, and Thieriot’s character, Bode, is Chloe’s former high school peer tutor, suggesting a possible rekindling of their past romance.

Tyler, played by Conor Sherry, will be introduced alongside McDermitt this Friday. Sherry’s character has been struggling with anger and recently ran away, which deeply affects Landon and Chloe’s family dynamic.

The narrative hints that Landon’s presence might complicate Chloe’s reunion with Bode, potentially forming a love triangle. This dynamic is expected to drive tension and intrigue in upcoming episodes.

Josh McDermitt’s addition to Fire Country follows his recent roles in NBC’s Suits LA and a guest appearance in The Righteous Gemstones. He has also worked on Showtime’s The Loudest Voice alongside Russell Crowe.

Represented by Innovative Artists and Trademark Talent, McDermitt brings considerable experience to this dramatic role. His joining the cast is anticipated to boost interest in the ongoing season’s emotional and relational complexities.

Fans can see first-look images of McDermitt as Landon released by CBS, offering a glimpse into the tone and direction of his character’s involvement. The show continues to build compelling storylines as it progresses through Season 4.

All episodes featuring McDermitt will be available on CBS and its streaming platforms, allowing viewers to follow Landon’s evolving story within Fire Country’s intense and heartfelt wildfire drama.
