9-1-1: Nashville is adding a new face to its cast for season two. Ryan Phillippe is joining the ABC first responder drama in a series regular role, and he has signed a multi-year contract. This means viewers will need to get used to seeing him around.

Chris O’Donnell, Jessica Capshaw, Kimberly Williams-Paisley, LeAnn Rimes, Hailey Kilgore, Michael Provost, Juani Feliz, and Hunter McVey star in the ABC series, which follows the first responders who work from a Nashville firehouse.

Deadline shared the following about Phillippe’s role:

“Phillippe, who has a multi-year deal, will star as 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.”

9-1-1 Nashville currently airs on Thursday nights. The premiere date for season two will be announced later.
