Well, this is delightful and unexpected: While Shemar Moore was originally going to be the only S.W.A.T. cast member involved in the upcoming spinoff S.W.A.T. E X I L E S , it seems he won’t be making the journey alone, after all.

Though they’re only appearing as guest stars in the pilot, Jay Harrington and Patrick St. Espirit will reprise their roles as Sergeant David “Deacon” Kay and Commander Robert Hicks, respectively, Variety reports. Both actors were part of the S.W.A.T. cast for the entirety of its eight-season run on CBS.

Harrington spoke exclusively with TVLine shortly after news S.W.A.T. EXILES broke in June, at which point he expressed some disappointment in not being involved in the spinoff. Related Stories
