Max Thieriot, best known for his role as Clay Spenser on the hit CBS show SEAL Team, recently made headlines when he announced that he would be leaving the show to join Fire Country, a new CBS drama series in development. Thieriot's departure from SEAL Team came as a surprise to many fans, especially considering the success and popularity of the show. However, the actor has since revealed that his decision to leave was inspired by one of his co-stars on SEAL Team, as well as a desire to take on new challenges and opportunities in his career.

In a recent interview with CBS, Thieriot opened up about his decision to leave SEAL Team and join Fire Country, shedding light on the factors that influenced his choice. The actor admitted that one of the main reasons for his departure was the opportunity to work with his co-star David Boreanaz, who plays Jason Hayes, the leader of the Tier One team on SEAL Team. Thieriot explained that Boreanaz had been a mentor and friend to him since the beginning of SEAL Team, and that the chance to collaborate with him on a new project was irresistible.

"David has been a huge influence on my career and my growth as an actor," Thieriot said. "Working with him on SEAL Team has been an incredible learning experience, and I have nothing but respect and admiration for him. When the opportunity to join Fire Country came up and work alongside David again, I knew it was something I couldn't pass up."

Thieriot's decision to join Fire Country also reflects his eagerness to explore new creative opportunities and take on different roles in the industry.
