Apple TV+ is rounding out the cast of the upcoming drama series “Firebug” with four new additions.

Greg Kinnear (“As Good as It Gets,” “Little Miss Sunshine”), Rafe Spall (“Trying,” “Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom”), Hannah Emily Anderson (“The Purge,” “Jigsaw”), and Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine (“The Lincoln Lawyer,” “The Chi”) have all joined the series. They will appear opposite previously announced series lead Taron Egerton as well as cast members Jurnee Smollett and John Leguizamo. The role marks a reunion for Kinnear and Egerton, who both appeared in the Apple series “Black Bird.”

Spall is repped by UTA and B-Side Management. Kinnear is repped by CAA and Goodman Genow. Mwine is repped by TalentWorks, Gallant Management, Sloane Offer, and Viewpoint. Anderson is repped by Gersh, GGA, and Atlas Artists.

“Firebug” was originally greenlit in December 2022. The nine-episode series is loosely inspired by true events presented in Truth Media’s “Firebug” podcast, which was hosted by Kary Antholis. The official description states the series “will follow a troubled detective and an enigmatic arson investigator (Egerton) as they pursue the trails of two serial arsonists.”
