Under Fire Cast – Ages, Partners, Characters

The Belgian firefighter drama Under Fire (Onder Vuur), which was initially released in 2021, finally came to Netflix on August 24 in some countries and on August 25 in others. Similar to the American drama series Rescue Me (2004-2011) and Chicago Fire (2012- ), Under Fire follows a group of firefighters who experience a change of leader after they disobey orders during a critical mission.

One of the aspects that makes this show a success is the performances of its cast members, especially Louis Talpe, who plays one of the bravest members of the squad. Sam Louwyck, too gives an excellent performance as a man who has to step down from his duties. Including these 2, the members of the Under Fire cast are all worthy of becoming global stars. Here is everything we know about the cast of Under Fire, with information about the actors’ characters in and out of this show, their ages, and real-life partners.
