The newest member of Firehouse 51 makes a dramatic entrance on his first day of work — and that doesn’t sit well with Chief Boden.
McQueen played Elena Gilbert’s younger “brother” Jeremy on the CW series, which also featured Fire leading man Taylor Kinney as werewolf Mason Lockwood. McQueen exited Vampire Diaries earlier this year.
Executive producer Danielle Gelber broke the news of McQueen’s casting on Twitter:
