The critically acclaimed military drama "The Unit," which inspired by real-life Delta Force operations, is returning to streaming in the UK. The series, which aired on CBS from 2006 to 2009, centered on a covert U.S. Special Forces team assigned classified missions directly by the President.

Dennis Haysbert, who portrayed the commanding officer Jonas Blane, was already known for his role as President David Palmer in "24." Since "The Unit" concluded, Haysbert has maintained a recognizable presence on American television, notably as the long-standing spokesperson for Allstate insurance. He has continued acting in shows like "Incorporated" and "Future Man" and currently narrates A&E Network's "American Justice" series.

David Harbour, who later achieved global fame as Chief Jim Hopper in "Stranger Things," made an early appearance on "The Unit" in a 2007 guest role as Gary Weber. Harbour also played Red Guardian in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He has spoken about the challenges of building a television career before "Stranger Things" brought him widespread recognition.

Regina Taylor, who played Molly Blane, the wife of Jonas and the domestic anchor of the series, was already an acclaimed actress. She was the first Black woman to win a Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Drama Series for her role in "I'll Fly Away" in 1993. Taylor has continued to work extensively in theater and television and has also garnered significant critical attention as a playwright and director.

Scott Foley, who played Bob Brown, the Unit's new recruit, had previously appeared in "Felicity" and "Dawson's Creek." After "The Unit," Foley took on roles in the "Scream" horror franchise and starred as Jake Ballard in the political thriller "Scandal." He has maintained a steady career in both drama and comedy, appearing in projects like the rom-com "La Dolce Villa."

Audrey Marie Anderson, who portrayed Tiffy Gerhardt, a wife navigating the pressures of life connected to the Unit, is perhaps best known to recent audiences as Lyla Michaels in the DC series "Arrow" and its spin-off "Legends of Tomorrow." She has continued to work consistently in American television since "The Unit" ended.

Max Martini, who played the popular character Mack Gerhardt, has built a career in action-oriented film and television. His roles include appearances in "Pacific Rim" and its sequel, as well as recurring parts in series such as "Suits." Martini often takes on military and action roles that leverage the physicality he developed on "The Unit."

Abby Brammell, who played Kim Brown, Bob's wife, has continued to work in American television, appearing in various drama and crime series and films. While maintaining a lower profile than some co-stars, she has worked consistently in television and film since the show's conclusion.

Demore Barnes, who portrayed Sergeant Charles Grey, has built a notable screen career on both sides of the Atlantic. His post-"The Unit" work includes recurring roles in acclaimed series like "Hannibal" and appearances in "The Originals."

Michael Irby, who played Sergeant Dirt Dime, has had an extensive television career, with notable roles in "The Killing" and a recurring part in "Law & Order." He has also appeared in a range of films, consistently bringing a quiet intensity to his performances.

"The Unit" originally aired for four seasons on CBS from 2006 to 2009, developing a dedicated following among viewers who continue to discuss plotlines and characters online. The series is now available to stream on Freeview channel 42 in the UK and on the Great! Player.
