CBS‘ Tracker will be looking for missing people in a new locale in the 2026-27 season.
The series, one of the most watched on TV, will relocate production to Los Angeles for its fourth season. The show, produced by Disney’s 20th Television, filmed in Vancouver for its first three seasons.
The move was helped by a record $48 million tax credit from the California Film Commission. The credit was awarded in March, though Tracker wasn’t identified as the recipient at that time — it’s listed as “Untitled Disney Entertainment Television Project 13” on the commission’s website. (20th TV is part of Disney Entertainment Television.)
The $48 million credit is the largest one the state commission has ever given to a relocating series. It previously awarded $42 million to Prime Video’s Fallout to move production to L.A. from New York for its third season.
The tax credit is based on $129 million in qualified spending for the series. The film commission’s tax credit list says Tracker is set for 176 filming days in California, employing 250 crew members and 275 actors (including guest stars). Production on season four is slated to begin in the summer.
Tracker is based on Jeffrey Deaver’s novel The Never Game. It stars Justin Hartley as Colter Shaw, a survivalist and — as the title states — skilled tracker who travels the country helping people and law enforcement agencies find missing persons in exchange for reward money. Fiona Rene and Chris Lee also star, with each episode also featuring several guest roles as Shaw takes on a new case.
Elwood Reid is the showrunner and executive produces with Hartley, Ken Olin, Connie Dolphin, Sharon Lee Watson and Alex Katsnelson. Deaver is a producer.
