Fire Country Season 4 cast and character guide: Who plays whom explored

Max Thieriot as Bode Leone

As mentioned, Bode is going to be the central figure, and his character arc is set to be redefined after the death of his father in Season 3. He is the ex-convict who joined Cal Fire's inmate firefighter program to seek redemption. Bode is going to fight the toughest battle of his life, aiming to serve the community while simultaneously trying to support her mother, reeling with grief.

The actor, in conversation with TV Insider, stated,

“He’s battling with himself over trying to be the man that his mom needs him to be and that the station needs him to be and his community needs him to be, while inside, there’s a little boy in there that’s really hurt and is really crying inside.”

Max Thieriot, who plays the character of Bode, also shares credits with Jennifer Lawrence in House at the End of the Street (2012), playing the role of a mysterious, dark man.

He was also in the popular TV show Bates Motel from 2013 to 2017 as Dylan Massett, Norman Bates's half-brother. In Fire Country, Thieriot isn't just starring but also co-creating the show, sharing occasional writing and directing credits.
