EXCLUSIVE: Chris Lee, who has recurred as Colter’s friend and newly minted tech whiz Randy on CBS‘ Tracker, has been promoted to series regular during the third season.
Lee first joined Tracker in Season 2. He was first introduced as Bobby’s (Eric Graise) charismatic and charming cousin who comes to town to give him a hand. Graise, whose character previously helped Colter with all his tech needs on missions, departed the series at the end of Season 3, and Lee’s Randy has been lending Colter a hand since.
Best known for his series regular role of Kaleb Hawkins in all four seasons of the CW’s Legacies, Lee most recently reprised his role as Hannibal in the upcoming season 7 of Showtime’s The Chi. On stage, he originated the role of Knuck in Alicia Key’s Tony Award-winning Broadway musical Hell’s Kitchen and played the dual role of ‘Thomas Jefferson’ and ‘Marquis de Lafayette’ in the national tour of Hamilton.

Tracker, based on the bestselling novel The Never Game by Jeffery Deaver, stars Justin Hartley as Colter Shaw, a lone-wolf survivalist who driven by the troubles of his past, uses his instincts to find the missing and collect rewards. Following last season’s explosive finale, Colter is wrestling with hard truths about his family’s history. In the wake of these shocking revelations, and aided by his trusted team, Colter must put the past in the rearview to focus on what he does best: using his instincts and survival skills to find the missing and collect rewards.
Justin Hartley, Ken Olin, Elwood Reid, Connie Dolphin, Sharon Lee Watson and Alex Katsnelson executive produce. Fiona Rene also stars as Reenie.
The series consistently leads broadcast, averaging 16.7M multi-platform viewers per episode after 35 days, according to a combination of Nielsen data and internal data. It was renewed for Season 4 in January.
It is currently airing its third season on CBS. New episodes air on Sundays. In the next episode, “The Field Trip,” when a young boy disappears during a school field trip at the aquarium, Colter must navigate a volatile father’s desperation to find his son.
