‘FBI: Most Wanted’: Meet Dylan McDermott’s Remy Scott (PHOTOS)
We’re only two weeks away from meeting the Fugitive Task Force’s new leader, following Julian McMahon’s exit from FBI: Most Wanted: Dylan McDermott‘s Remy Scott.
CBS tweeted out photos of McDermott, solo and with members of the team — Keisha Castle-Hughes (who plays Hana Gibson), Alexa Davalos (who plays Kristin Gaines), and Miguel Gomez (who plays Ivan Ortiz) — as Supervisory Special Agent Remy Scott. The only one missing from the photos is Roxy Sternberg, who plays Sheryll Barnes. He will make his debut in the April 12 episode. Check out the photos, as well as the first promo with McDermott, below.

McMahon’s Jess LaCroix was written out in the March 8 episode and was killed in the line of duty. The following episode featured a visit from Special Agent in Charge Isobel Castille (FBI‘s Alana De La Garza) during which she said they’d be replacing him once they’d vetted the candidates.
“We looked at [bringing in a new character] as an opportunity to reinvigorate, to shake up the dynamic. … He shows up, and we’re off to the races,” showrunner and executive producer David Hudgins told TV Insider.
“As writers, we were thinking it should be somebody who does have a different style than Jess, somebody who has a different outlook, maybe approaches the cases in a different way, but ultimately just like Jess, is motivated by justice, by getting the fugitive in every episode,” he continued. “We felt like here’s a chance for somebody to do things a little bit differently and watching the team adjust to that is interesting.”

Sorry. After his turn as Richard Wheatley I'll never see him as a good guy again.

Try to remember. Him from The Practice.

Why would you take someone that played an evil organized crime boss and put him in a respected FBI series. Of all the great actors out there this is not a very good choice. I guess I will change the channel at 10:00

Because it's ACTING. He's not playing himself, he's playing a character.

I think you meant to type "over-acting." I am not a fan of Mr. McDermott. I thought he lacked any subtlety to his acting back on The Practice. As Richard Wheatley, he mugged a lot at the camera and was totally unconvincing when his sociopathic character lied (even though sociopaths are usually very good at lying). I will give him a couple of episodes but I don't like the show enough to keep watching if he displays his usual bombastic school of acting skills.

Okay it's a scary thing when people who watch Tv Shows can't tell the difference between reality and fiction. Viewers were not supposed to like Richard Wheatley....HE IS A BAD GUY. People chill the hell out!

Great replacement!
You kinda forget Jesse (whom I liked a lot) immediately. Seamless transition!

I’ve loved Dylan in everything he has been in. I’ve watched him in everything. I’m 79 and still love him. Happy he on show.
