Ronen Rubinstein Talks ‘9-1-1 Lone Star’, The Importance Of Representation And Coming Out As Bisexual
“9-1-1 Lone Star” clearly celebrates diversity. The TV drama focuses on the first responders in the police and fire departments of Austin, Texas. Featuring cast and characters that are African American, Latino, Muslim, gay and transgender, “Lone Star” defies – and redefines – stereotypes. For Ronen Rubinstein [Dead of Summer], who portrays Tyler Kennedy “T.K.” Strand, an openly gay firefighter and son of Rob Lowe’s Captain Owen, that representation couldn’t be more timely.
