He emphasized the importance of exploring life outside of the intense, tragic events that usually dominate the series, noting, “There’s been a lot of talk about it. We’re gonna try to deal with [and] see what these people do when there’s no tragedy going on.”
Character Development in Season 3
Jules Latimer echoed Burke’s sentiments, expressing excitement about the potential for deeper character development in the upcoming season. “With a third season, we’re gonna dive into character[s] and what we do outside of the incidents. At least that’s what Billy wants to have happen!” she said, highlighting the opportunity for the cast to explore their characters’ lives beyond the flames.
The Heart of Fire Country
The CBS series follows Bode Donovan (Max Thieriot), an inmate looking to shorten his prison sentence by participating in the California Conservation Camp Program. Assigned to his hometown, Bode reconnects with family and friends while striving for redemption.
