Another 9-1-1 spinoff is set to air during the 2025-26 TV season.
The popular Ryan Murphy series will be getting the spinoff treatment, and this time, the first responders will be in Nashville, Deadline reported on Thursday, Feb. 20. ABC ordered 9-1-1: Nashville, straight-to-series, meaning the show will skip the pilot phase and instead go into production for the first season.
The new series is written and executive produced by the franchise’s co-creators Murphy and Tim Minear, as well as 9-1-1: Lone Star showrunner Rashad Raisani. Co-creator of the first two 9-1-1 series, Brad Falchuk and 9-1-1 star Angela Bassett, will also be serving as executive producers.
The Thursday announcement follows reports by Variety that there were conversations about a spinoff.
“Tim Minear and I are working on a new spinoff that we’re actually writing, and that we hope to get on the air next fall,” Murphy told Variety in October. “Sadly, we all love Lone Star, but the financials just didn’t work. It’s a Disney company that was on a Fox network, and it just was never going to work. And we had a long run of it.”
However, after Lone Star premiered in 2020, a second spinoff was discussed, and several locations were considered — including Las Vegas and Hawaii, per a Deadline October 2024 report. Eventually, the series shifted to the South. Deadline reported that Nashville was the front-runner because of a proposed tax credit the production was offered.
The plot and casting of the new series have not been revealed. But 9-1-1: Lone Star follows the work and personal lives of a team of first responders.
