SWAT: Exiles arrives later this month on Starz, and viewers are getting a closer look at the SWAT spin-off series. A trailer and poster for the series have now been released. The series has already been renewed for a second season.
Lucy Barrett, Adain Bradley, Zyra Gorecki, Freddy Miyares, and Ronen Rubinstein join Shemar Moore in the series, in which Hondo comes out of retirement to lead a team of rejects after a mission goes wrong.
Starz shared the following about the upcoming series:
“Series star and executive producer Shemar Moore (“Criminal Minds,” “The Young and the Restless”), reprises his role as LAPD S.W.A.T. Sergeant Daniel “Hondo” Harrelson, who spent his career proving that discipline and loyalty can be built, not just born. But after a botched raid ends in the death of a young operator Nico Reyes, Hondo is forced to walk away from the only life he’s known. Until his old commanding officer, Robert Hicks (Patrick St. Esprit), offers him one last shot at redemption: start up a brand-new S.W.A.T. unit, built from LA’s most talented rejects.
The result is a squad nobody expected: Sammy Bishop (Lucy Barrett), a gun-show influencer with something to prove; Ethan Cole (Freddy Miyares), a socially awkward tactical savant; Cassidy Reed (Zyra Gorecki), guarded and determined to earn her place; Jude Callan (Ronen Rubinstein), a wildcard with a troubled past; and Malik Anderson (Adain Bradley), sharp, ambitious, and hiding more than anyone realizes. Together, under Hondo’s command, they become the Exiles, a team built to fail, in theory, but determined to prove otherwise.
As the squad cuts its teeth on Los Angeles’ most volatile threats, such as cartel assassins, gun-runners, and a city on edge, Hondo starts pulling on a thread that won’t let go: someone inside his own unit has been feeding information to outside interests. What begins as paranoia becomes a slow-motion realization: S.W.A.T. itself is being set up to fail, and someone with real power wants it gone; replaced by something more private, more controllable, and far less accountable.
Caught between protecting his team, chasing the truth, and staying one step ahead of the people trying to erase him, Hondo has to decide how far he’s willing to go, and who he can actually trust, as the walls close in. Alliances shift, loyalties are tested, and by the season’s end, Hondo and the Exiles are forced into a final reckoning that will determine not just their careers, but the future of S.W.A.T. itself.”
SWAT: Exiles arrives on September 25th. The trailer and poster for the new series are below.
