Fox has added four more characters to its upcoming “9-1-1” spinoff starring Rob Lowe. Natacha Karam, Brian Michael Smith, Julian Works and newcomer Rafael Silva are joining “9-1-1: Lone Star” as series regulars.
Karam will play Marjan Marwani, a devout Muslim firefighter, who is also described as an adrenaline junkie. Smith will portray transgender male firefighter Paul Strickland, who “has a gift for observation worthy of Sherlock Holmes.” Smith, a trans male, is the second notable transgender casting for a broadcast TV series, following Laverne Cox’s starring role in CBS’ “Doubt,” which ran for one season in 2017.
Works will portray rookie firefighter Mateo Chavez, while Silva plays Austin police officer Carlos Reyes.
