WhenFBI: Internationalreturns for Season 4this fall, the Fly Team will be under the leadership of someone new.Jesse Lee Sofferjoined the seriesas Wes, and new images courtesy ofTV Linereveal the character. Wes is described as “charming and rakish, an agent whose impeccable instincts and unconventional tactics fuel his drive to stop at nothing to achieve justice.” Lee Soffer is billed as a series regular, giving his character a significant arc in the upcoming season.
One image captures Lee Soffer in a scene where he sports a long-sleeved black button-up shirt and black pants. This is different from his character fromChicago P.D.Jay Halstead, whose signature look consisted of short-sleeved t-shirts and blue jeans. Like other members of the Fly Team, he doesn’t have a badge since the team works outside the country and collaborates with Interpol and local police.

Meet Wesley Mitchell, ‘FBI: International’s Latest Addition
When the show returns, fans will not meet Wes in the season premiere, but he will appear in later episodes. “Wes is not with the team when the season opens,” showrunnerMatt Olmsteadtold TVLine about the new character. “Viewers meet him when he is investigating a ‘tourism robbery’ crew in Los Angeles — and dealing with turbulence with his girlfriend," he previewed the justice-driven person who also can’t escape relationship troubles. Details about who his girlfriend is and the source of the conflict have not been revealed, so we’ll have to tune in to see.
Away from Los Angeles, the Fly Team will meet someone new whenTyler Booth, played byStation 19’sJay Hayden, seeks them out. Described as an “intelligent and charismatic agent,” Booth calls upon the team for help with a case. He will make his debut later in the season.
FBI: Internationalreturns with a shaken-up cast. Redwood and Vidotto are the only original Fly Team members to reprise their characters, Special Agents Andre Raines and Cameron Vo, respectively. Wolfe, who joined the series in Season 3, plays Special Agent Amanda Tate, while Willis plays Europol Agent Megan “Smitty” Garrettson.
