Meaghan Rath will play a new character, Tani Rey, who is added to the team after McGarrett discovers her working as a lifeguard at a hotel pool following her expulsion from the Police Academy, where she was first-rate candidate.

Beulah Koale will portray Junior Reigns, a former Navy SEAL, who asks McGarrett for a job after returning from service.

Variety, the actors were unable to reach satisfactory deals with CBS Television Studios, which produces the series. Sources said that CBS' final offer to Kim and Park was believed to have been 10-15 percent lower than what O'Loughlin and Caan make in salary.
