'Hawaii Five-0' Season 9 Begins Production, Alex O'Loughlin Possibly Reuniting With Ian Anthony Dale, Grace Park By July
It looks like Adam Noshimuri will be a major part of Hawaii Five-0 Season 9. Fans have been disappointed when Ian Anthony Dale only appeared in a few episodes in the eighth season although the actor was added in the show's main cast. Nevertheless, there is a huge possibility that Adam will be back and might even bring a beloved character with him this September.
The eighth season was certainly a difficult one for Adam Noshimuri as he led his own special division in the Five-0 Task Force that dealt with organized crime. Kono Kalakaua's husband ended up being kidnapped, arrested for murder, and discovered he has a half-sister who was eventually killed. Unfortunately, this led to Adam deciding to shut down his division and going back to the mainland to be with his wife. Nevertheless, there is hope that Ian Anthony Dale will still be a huge part of Hawaii Five-0 Season 9.
Alex O'Loughlin has previously admitted that he enjoyed working with Ian Anthony Dale on Season 8 and hopes that the actor will continue with the show for a long time. There are speculations that Tani Rey's discovery in Adam Noshimuri's house will be one of the main storylines in Hawaii Five-0 Season 9 so Adam could clear his name later this year. In addition to that, Adam's return could also lead to a possible guest appearance from Grace Park as Kono Kalakaua.
It is important to point out that CBS has not yet confirmed Ian Anthony Dale or Grace Park's return in Hawaii Five-0 Season 9. However, it is possible that new details will be revealed by July this year.
Sande Alessi Casting Hawaii has just confirmed that the agency is currently looking for extras to appear in Hawaii Five-0 Season 9 as well as Magnum P.I. starting June 30. The agency is looking for actors who are currently based in Honolulu to appear in both Peter Lenkov shows. Filming is then expected to begin in early July when Alex O'Loughlin, Ian Anthony Dale, Scott Caan, and more are ready to begin work.
Hawaii Five-0 Season 9 is set to air on CBS in early September.
