As the embers of Fire Country Season 3 still smolder in the minds of fans, all eyes are turning to Season 4 with one burning question: is it ready—and when can we expect it on screen? With CBS confirming the series’ renewal and production updates slowly emerging, here’s everything we know so far about the progress, timeline, and what’s next for Fire Country in 2025.
Filming for Fire Country Season 4: Has It Wrapped Yet?
As of early July 2025, Fire Country Season 4 has not yet fully wrapped filming, but is well into its production phase. After a delayed start earlier this year due to weather-related issues and complex scheduling (especially with Max Thieriot also involved in producing), the cast and crew kicked off the filming in late spring.
Set in Northern California and primarily filmed in British Columbia, the show’s fourth season involves more intense stunts and expanded outdoor locations. According to behind-the-scenes posts and cast social media updates, multiple key episodes have already been shot, and filming is expected to wrap by mid-to-late August 2025 if everything stays on schedule.
When Will Fire Country Season 4 Be Released?
CBS has not officially announced the premiere date for Season 4. However, if production wraps in late summer as expected, the most likely release window is October or November 2025. This would align with CBS’s typical fall lineup strategy, ensuring Fire Country gets a prime Friday night spot once again.
Here are the likely options for the premiere:
-
October 10, 2025 (second Friday of October)
-
October 17, 2025
-
Or a November 2025 debut if post-production needs extra time
The network may announce the exact date at the upcoming CBS Fall Preview event or during the Television Critics Association summer press tour.
What to Expect in Season 4
Season 3 ended with multiple emotional cliffhangers—including the tragic death of Vince Leone and Gabriela’s shocking departure. The upcoming season promises:
-
A deeper focus on Sharon Leone’s leadership following her husband’s death
-
Major changes at Three Rock Camp as Bode steps into a more authoritative role
-
A new romantic arc that may redefine several key relationships
-
The potential return of Gabriela… or someone completely new entering Bode’s life
There’s also speculation that Season 4 may expand beyond Edgewater and explore wider California wildfire zones, hinting at crossover potential or larger statewide emergencies.
Is Max Thieriot Still Involved?
Yes. Despite swirling rumors after reports of health concerns (including a fabricated claim that he suffered a stroke during production—this is false), Max Thieriot remains at the heart of Fire Country. He’s actively filming, co-writing, and executive producing Season 4. Insiders say he’s more invested than ever in shaping Bode’s evolution into a mature leader and father figure.
What’s Happening Behind the Scenes?
Social media updates from cast members like Jordan Calloway (Jake), Kevin Alejandro (Manny), and Stephanie Arcila (Gabriela) have shown set photos and teaser videos, indicating:
-
More emotional scenes and character-driven plots
-
Real fire training with Cal Fire advisers
-
Intense night shoots hinting at massive wildfire sequences
Fans also noticed new faces in group photos, suggesting that Fire Country may introduce several recurring characters this season.
Why the Wait Is Worth It
While delays in production can frustrate fans, the extra time is being used to elevate the quality of storytelling. The writing team, now reinforced with new hires from other CBS dramas, is taking a more cinematic approach in Season 4, focusing on high-stakes emotion, moral conflict, and deeply human moments.
If you loved the heart-pounding rescues, redemption arcs, and tight-knit brotherhood of the first three seasons, Season 4 promises to be the most explosive, emotional, and ambitious yet.
Countdown to Season 4 Begins
Although the official premiere date hasn’t dropped, excitement is already building across fan communities. Stay tuned to CBS announcements and cast interviews—especially in late August—for the big reveal.
Until then, fans can relive past episodes on Paramount+ and follow the official Fire Country Instagram and Twitter accounts for more behind-the-scenes sneak peeks.
Bottom line? The fire is far from out. Fire Country Season 4 is on its way—and it’s bringing the heat. 🔥
