Max Thieriot will pull double duty on CBS next season starring on SEAL Team and Fire Country

Deadline

Thieriot is the star, co-creator and executive producer of CBS' new inmate firefighter drama. But those busy jobs won't keep him from leaving SEAL Team. According to Deadline's Nellie Andreeva, "Thieriot has closed a deal for Season 6 of SEAL Team, which is slated to begin production soon. After wrapping the military drama, Thieriot is expected to segue to Fire Country as it starts filming its first season. The one-year arrangement applies to the upcoming sixth season of SEAL Team; it is unclear yet what will happen beyond that with him and the rest of the cast whose contracts are up then. The new SEAL Team deal eliminates the uncertainty, which prompted the Season 5 finale to end in a cliffhanger for Thieriot’s character Clay Spense."
