“…A huge thank you to one of the greatest creative teams in television — Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk and Tim Minear — for creating one of the most thrilling action shows in the world,” Fox president Michael Thorn said at the time.
That trio also created the original series, which premiered in 2018 and was set in Los Angeles.
The Austin-based spinoff, starring Rob Lowe and Gina Torres, aired in 2020. “Sadly, we all loved Lone Star, but the financing just wasn’t feasible,” Murphy said in an interview. “It’s a Disney company that used to be on Fox and it was never going to work. And we’ve had that for such a long time. So now we’re launching a new show in a new city that I can’t name, but it’s exciting. And 9-1-1 has moved to ABC and suddenly it’s, I think, the biggest show on Thursday night.”
He added, “They’re obviously interested in that, so we’re going to give them another show that I really like.”
Deadline reports that Las Vegas could be the location for the latest iteration of 9-1-1.
Murphy and Minear are working on the show, which is expected to premiere next year.
