And just like that, 9-1-1: Nashville‘s debut season is in the books!

The 9-1-1 spin-off introduced fans of the OG first responder drama to a brand new firehouse in Music City, a busy new call center, and a stacked new cast led by Chris O’Donnell, Jessica Capshaw, and LeAnn Rimes.

After an eventful season packed with adrenaline-pumping emergencies, loads of personal and professional drama, special guest stars, and even a 9-1-1 crossover episode, 9-1-1: Nashville‘s “Intrusive Thoughts” closed on a major cliffhanger, with Blythe (Jessica Capshaw) and Dixie (LeAnn Rimes) duking it out. So what happens next? Is this the end of the road for 9-1-1: Nashville or does the spin-off still have more stories to tell?

9-1-1: Nashville Season 2 Cast: Ryan Phillipe Crashes Music City

One BIG change 9-1-1: Nashville fans can expect in the sophomore season? Ryan Phillippe is joining the cast! As Deadline reported on April 20, Phillippe is joining the first responder drama as a series regular and is said to have a multi-year deal.

Here’s how Deadline describes his role: “…A brilliant, iconoclastic detective who moves to Nashville from New York. A seductive bad boy with a past, he’ll stir up all kinds of juicy drama with our first responders while leading an investigation into a mysterious criminal tormenting Nashville on a biblical scale.” What a hook!

Phillippe brings even more star power to the 9-1-1 spinoff, and his induction into the 9-1-1 universe opens a door for a potential I Know What You Did Last Summer reunion with OG series star Jennifer Love Hewitt. The 51-year-old actor amassed nearly 80 film and TV credits since kicking off his on-screen career in 1993 and is well-known for Cruel Intentions, Shooter, Crash, and more major titles. (Also never forget he had a perfect role selling Ryan Phillippe Steaks in I Love That for You. RIP!)
