Press Release
9-1-1: Lone Star will conclude with its upcoming fifth season.
While many fans may be saddened by the news, signs have pointed to this for some time. Rumors about the series ending began circulating in June, shortly after it was announced that original cast member Sierra McClain would not be returning as a series regular. In addition, several cast members shared cryptic and emotional messages on social media as they wrapped filming for Season 5, hinting that they didn’t anticipate coming back for a sixth season.
“From the beginning, fans have connected with the powerful and heroic stories of Austin’s 126,” said Fox President Michael Thorn in a statement released on Thursday. “A huge thanks goes to Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk, and Tim Minear for creating one of the most thrilling dramas on television. As we enter the final season, we’re ready to deliver the intense, high-stakes action and emotional moments the show is known for, led by our incredible cast, including Rob Lowe and Gina Torres.”
As reported by Deadline, Lone Star is not expected to transition to ABC after its Fox run, unlike the original 9-1-1 series. However, there are rumors of potential spinoffs in the 9-1-1 universe, with Las Vegas being considered as a possible new setting.
