Development


In November 2021, CBS announced it was developing a series with Thieriot, Tony Phelan and Joan Rater, based on Thierot's experiences growing up in Northern California fire country. The potential series was then known as Cal Fire.[5] In February 2022, a series pilot was green-lit.[6] The pilot was written by Phelan and Rater, with Thieriot as co-writer, and directed by James Strong. In May 2022, CBS picked up the series, now titled Fire Country.[7] Tia Napolitano would serve as the series showrunner.[8]


Filming


Filming of the series began in July 2022 in Vancouver, Canada, and is scheduled to continue until December 2022. The series uses the nearby village of Fort Langley to portray the fictional Northern California town of Edgewater.[9]


Casting


In February 2022, it was announced that Thieriot would star in the series.[10] In March 2022, Burke and Alejandro were given lead roles in the pilot.[11] A few days later, it was announced that Farr, Calloway, Arcila, and Latimer would be appearing as series regulars.[12] In September 2022, it was announced that Trucco would be joining the show in a recurring role.[13]
