July 20 (UPI) -- Ian Anthony Dale, Meaghan Rath and Beulah Koale are joining Hawaii Five-0 for Season 8, CBS announced Wednesday.

The show will return with fresh episodes on Sept. 29.

Dale will become a full-time cast member after playing the recurring role of Adam Noshimuri since Season 2.

Newbie Rath will play "Tani Rey, who McGarrett [Alex O'Loughlin] recruits after finding her working as a lifeguard at a hotel pool after she was kicked out of the police academy, despite being a first-rate candidate," the network said in press notes.

"Koale will portray Junior Reigns, a former Navy SEAL who just returned from serving his country and asks McGarrett, a fellow SEAL, for a job."

The show also stars Scott Caan, Chi McBride, Jorge Garcia, Taylor Wily, Kimee Balmilero and Dennis Chun.

The new hires were announced after the network confirmed longtime cast members Daniel Dae Kim and Grace Park had departed following a contract dispute.
