“Hawaii Five-0” is shoring up its cast as two mainstays sail off into the sunset.

Ian Anthony Dale, Meaghan Rath and Beulah Koale are joining the CBS procedural as series regulars for Season 8, the network announced on Wednesday. The new season launches Sept. 29.

CBS previously announced that Daniel Dae Kim and Grace Park are exiting after contract negotiations broke down. Their departures led to renewed questions over whether Hollywood is indeed making advancements toward inclusivity.
