The cast of Ryan Murphy's upcoming Fox drama series 9-1-1 continues to grow, adding Oliver Stark (Luther), Aisha Hinds (Underground), Kenneth Choi (Spider-Man: Homecoming), and Rockmond Dunbar (Prison Break) as series regulars. The series pilot is created, written and executive-produced by Murphy and Brad Falchuk.

Beyond his role as Benjamin "C-Note" Franklin on Prison Break, Dunbar recently starred opposite Aaron Paul and Michelle Monaghan in the drama series The Path. Stark was most recently seen in AMC's Into The Badlands and in the feature film Underworld: Blood Wars, with Kate Beckinsale.

Choi is no stranger to working with Murphy: the two previous collaborated on The People v. OJ Simpson: American Crime Story, where Choi portrayed Judge Lance Ito. Choi can next bee seen on David Ayer's Bright; Stephanie, with Frank Grillo; Nash Edgerton's Gringo; and Hotel Artemis, with Jodie Foster and Sterling K.
