Jared Padalecki's 'Fire Country' Spin-Off Gets a Long-Awaited Update

When Jared Padalecki was cast as Camden in a guest role on Fire Country Season 3, that came with potentially life-changing developments. CBS was considering developing another spinoff centered on the character, and when Padalecki extended his deal with CBS Studios, it seemed like things were shaping up. However, there have been no updates about the show, tentatively titled Fire Country: Surfside, after Camden's arc on the mothership series ended. It was also revealed that Padalecki had signed on to star in a new CBS medical drama, which would affect his work on the potential spinoff. TV Line caught up with Fire Country co-creator Max Thieriot, and the question about the second spinoff came up. "I don't know what the status of that [spin-off] is," he admitted when asked how Padalecki's new drama affects the spinoff. "There's no real update at this time, [but] we're certainly interested in expanding the universe," he added.
