9-1-1: Lone Star Season 5 – Everything we know

With a cast member leaving and worrying claims, the show’s future has been called into question by the rumor mill. Fear not, though, as 9-1-1 Lone Star Season 5 has confirmed details.

The characters in the medical drama face life and death every day, but now the TV show itself is on a lifeline, worry some anxious fans after reports it’s on the chopping block.

Rafael Silva — who plays Carlos — posted on Instagram when headlines about the potential end started appearing. “Wherever the ship sails, [I’m] grateful for the family I’ve created on this show,” he wrote.

So what has actually been confirmed about one of Fox’s most bingeworthy TV shows? We’ve broken down all the updates so far and what official channels are saying.

Will there be a 9-1-1: Lone Star Season 5?

9-1-1: Lone Star Season 5 releases in September 2024, but Season 6 is uncertain following Sierra McClain’s exit.

McClain will not return as Grace for future seasons, and on June 7 Deadline claimed Fox is considering all options, including cancellation.

Entertainment Weekly confirmed “no decision” on the renewal had been made on June 11.

“Nowhere in that article stated a certain fate for our show,” actor Ronen Rubinstein said in response to the headlines. “But one thing I do know for certain is we will continue pouring our blood, sweat, and tears into these last few episodes and deliver our most special season yet. I better see all of you in September.”

Fox Entertainment CEO Rob Wade told Deadline in May, “We are excited about the new season. We’re going to see how that goes as always, and then make decisions about the future of that franchise.”

9-1-1: Lone Star Season 5 plot

9-1-1: Lone Star Season 5 will begin with a train derailment, a replacement in the lieutenant role, and the continued fallout of Owen’s brother’s death.

With McClain’s exit, we suspect the show will also write a natural conclusion for operator Grace.

Whether she gets a Grey’s Anatomy Derek Sheppard-style death off-screen or a happy ending that lets us know the character moved elsewhere is yet to be seen.

Grace was part of the original Lone Star cast, so we hope it’s an ending befitting of that stature.

There will also be 12 episodes in Season 5.

Who could be in the cast?

The surviving cast from Season 4 is returning for Lone Star Season 5, except Sierra McClain.

This might be the last time we see these actors as their characters, as contract negotiations continue to hit bumps in the road.

9-1-1: Lone Star Season 5 cast:

• Rob Lowe as Owen Marshal Strand
• Ronen Rubinstein as Tyler Kennedy “TK” Strand Main
• Jim Parrack Judson as “Judd” Ryder
