FOX has announced details on its upcoming drama series, “Rescue: HI-Surf,” which follows the personal and professional lives of the heavy-water lifeguards who patrol and protect the North Shore of O’ahu – the most famous and dangerous stretch of coastline in the world. Each episode will feature these dedicated, heroic and adrenaline-seeking first responders saving lives in the difficult and often life-threatening conditions of Hawaii’s Seven Mile Miracle. 

The new pulse-pounding Hawaii-set lifeguard drama series comes from prolific, award-winning executive producer/director John Wells (Shameless, The West Wing, ER) and executive producer/writer Matt Kester (Animal Kingdom, Outsiders).

The series stars Robbie Magasiva (Wentworth, Bad Behaviour), Arielle Kebbel (The Vampire Diaries, John Tucker Must Die), Adam Demos (Sex / Life, UnReal), Kekoa Kekumano (The White Lotus, Aquaman), Alex Aiono (Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin, Doogie Kameāloha M.D), and Zoe Cipres (Roswell, New Mexico). In addition, Sea Shimooka (3 Body Problem, Arrow), Shawn Hatosy (Animal Kingdom) and Ian Anthony Dale (The Resident) will appear in recurring roles.

Matt Kester has created the series. Kester, John Wells and Daniele Nathanson are executive producers and co-showrunners. Erin Jontow (John Wells Productions) is also an executive producer. Wells directed the series’ first two episodes, and Kester and Nathanson are writers on the series, with Kester writing the series premiere.

The new series will debut with a special two episode premiere on Sunday, 22nd September 2024, immediately following the FOX NFL doubleheader at 8:00-9:00 PM ET/5:00-6:00 PM PT, live to all time zones.  A new episode will be released weekly on Mondays and the new episodes will be available the following day on Hulu and Hulu On Disney+ in the United States.   Internationally, since “Rescue: HI-Surf” is co-produced by Warner Bros. Television and FOX Entertainment Studios, it won’t be available on Disney+.
