The trailer for Fire Country season 3, episode 5 previews the debut of veteran television star Jared Padalecki as Bode’s boss. It was announced earlier this year that, following his starring turn on The CW’s Walker, Padalecki was set to join Fire Country season 3 with an eye towards a potential spinoff. With just days to go until the Supernatural alum makes his firefighting premiere, it looks like the new arrival will cause a bit of chaos.
A new promo for Fire Country season 3, episode 5, titled “Edgewater’s About to Get Real Cozy”, pulls back the curtain on Padalecki’s arrival. The episode is directed by Mark Tonderai, and written by Jen Klein. In the short preview for the November 15 episode on CBS, included below, it’s clear that the new character has his own idea of how to run things, even though it could be considered reckless or harmful.
What The Fire Country Season 3, Episode 5 Promo Reveals
Padalecki’s Character Is A Wild Addition
Padalecki joins the Fire Country cast as Camden, a SoCal firefighter and maverick. According to the official description, Camden has a “surfer swagger” and is a force to be reckoned with. Prior to the character’s debut, it was teased that Camden would instantly recognize the raw talent of Bode, the lead character played by Max Thieriot. And, if the guest appearance goes well, Padalecki’s character could move on to his own spinoff, but that is in its early stages so far, with no writer attached.
Although the early previews made it seem like Camden would be a positive addition to Fire Country, the latest previews complicate that narrative a little bit. Camden insists in the promo that he wants to teach Bode his own way of becoming a firefighter, even if that is unsafe. That is without mentioning the ongoing romance drama between Bode and Gabriela (Stephanie Arcila), which continues to be a driving force for the series.
The Verdict On Padalecki’s Addition To Fire Country
The Hit Show Is Getting A Popular Star
Along with the news of Padalecki joining Fire Country, it was announced that CBS Studios has extended its first-look deal with Padalecki, which involves developing and producing a new series for CBS Studios. It continues the actor’s quietly impressive streak on the small screen, which began with the Gilmore Girls and Supernatural in the early 2000s and continues to today.
