Scoop: Coming Up on a New Episode of DEPUTY on FOX - Thursday, March 5, 2020

When one of Charlie's mentees from the local library gets mixed up with a gang, Charlie ropes in the whole team to help save her life. As Bill's term draws to an end, other players continue to enter the race for power. Meanwhile, Cade and Teresa are struggling to deal with an unforeseen situation with their foster children in the all-new "10-8 School Ties" episode of DEPUTY airing Thursday, March 5 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. (DEP-110) (TV-14 L, V)

From executive producers David Ayer ("Training Day," "End of Watch") and Chris Long ("Condor," "Religion of Sports"), DEPUTY blends the spirit of a classic Western with a modern-day attitude and emotionally driven, visceral storytelling. Featuring an ensemble of ambitious and complicated people who won't rest until justice is served, DEPUTY brings a gritty authenticity to the modern cop drama.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department is one of the largest police forces in the world, but when the elected Sheriff dies, an arcane rule in the county charter, forged back in the Wild West, suddenly thrusts the most unlikely man into the job. That man is BILL HOLLISTER (Stephen Dorff, "True Detective"). A fifth-generation lawman, Bill is only interested in justice; his soul wears a white hat. The bad guys don't stand a chance, but neither do the politicos in the Hall of Justice.

Under Bill's command is a county-wide crew of LA's finest, including Deputy CADE WARD (Brian Van Holt, "Cougar Town"), a former Marine stationed in Afghanistan, eight years sober and one of Bill's few confidantes; Deputy BRIANNA BISHOP (Bex Taylor-Klaus, "Arrow," "Voltron"), the whip-smart, sarcastic driver in charge of Bill's security detail; and Deputy JOSEPH HARRIS (Shane Paul McGhie, "What Men Want"), THE SON of Bill's fallen partner.

The dangers associated with the job often lead the police to LA County General Hospital, where Dr. PAULA REYES (Yara Martinez, "Jane the Virgin," "True Detective"), the hospital's chief trauma surgeon - and Bill's wife - provides medical support.

Given a job he never wanted, in an unfamiliar sea of politics, Bill quickly learns that doing what is expected and doing what is right are two different things, and that his innate, dogged pursuit of justice is the only skill the job truly requires.

DEPUTY is produced by Entertainment One and FOX Entertainment. David Ayer and Chris Long of Cedar Park Entertainment serve as executive producers, alongside showrunner Kimberly Ann Harrison. Will Beall created the series and Ayer directed the first two episodes.
