Tracker is going through multiple cast changes ahead of season 3 but Chris Lee‘s Randy appears to have a promising future on Justin Hartley‘s hit CBS series.
The show, which premiered in February 2024, is centered around a survivalist named Colter (Justin Hartley) who travels the country helping to solve a variety of mysteries. Based on Jeffery Deaver’s novel The Never Game, Tracker follows Colter week to week as he works on cases with help from Teddi (Robin Weigert), Velma (Abby McEnany), technology genius Bobby (Eric Graise) and attorney Reenie (Fiona Rene).
Tracker lost Weigert before season 2 and Graise and McEnany one year later. Lee, for his part, joined the show as Randy and quickly won over viewers.
