S.W.A.T. Exiles
New generation. New tactics. Built to protect.
Created by Jason Ning
On STARZ
A procedural crime drama built on the familiar formula of a grizzled veteran assembling a ragtag team, balancing action and character dynamics across episodic missions.
After a high-profile mission goes sideways, Daniel 'Hondo' Harrelson is pulled out of forced retirement to lead a last-chance experimental SWAT unit made up of untested, unpredictable young recruits. Hondo must bridge a generational divide, navigate clashing personalities, and turn a squad of outsiders into a team capable of protecting the city and saving the program that made him who he is.
