The post All American Season 7: Everything We Know So Far appeared first on TV Fanatic.
All American Season 7 will not return until 2025, and when it does, it will be very different from the previous six seasons.
While the series is on hiatus, The CW shared details about All American’s upcoming season. The season will be a soft reboot since only a handful of the original characters are returning.
We’ve gathered everything we know about All American Season 7, including Daniel Ezra’s role, which other original cast members are returning, and what the show will be about.
Has All American Been Renewed For Season 7?
Yes, the CW renewed All American for Season 7 in June 2024.
Shortly after, Daniel Ezra announced he wouldn’t return for Season 7 as a series regular, changing the show’s scope to a soft reboot since it will no longer focus on Spencer James’s life.
When Will All American Season 7 Be Released?
All American Season 7 will premiere in 2025, but we’re unsure of an exact date.
Since The CW announced it for the 2024-25 season, it will likely premiere during midseason.
How Did All American Season 6 End?
Everyone in the vortex completed their journeys. We’re grateful that showrunner Nkechi Okoro Carroll added two additional episodes so long-time viewers could see Spencer and Olivia get married.
While parts of All American Season 6 felt rushed, it featured many nostalgic moments. It was about saying goodbye to the cast and characters we’d grown to care about.

Spencer made the NFL draft and became the Super Bowl MVP in less than a year. That seemed improbable, but the series wanted to show how Spencer could conquer everything.
Seeing Spencer and Olivia get married in the James backyard was perfect because it was simple and romantic, and their sendoff showed how much the town cared for and influenced them.
All American Season 6 was also a pivotal year for Jordan and Layla. They both processed different grief issues, and Layla realized her issues with her mom made her fear getting married.
They both longed for a place that felt like home when they married. Laura helped with that when she gave them the Baker home, and Jordan decided to coach the next generation at Crenshaw.
As luck would have it, Asher returned to help Mrs. Coach Montes coach the team at West Beverly. It would be entertaining to see those best friends coaching rival schools.
Patience got an offer from a Broadway musical, and Coop was accepted into Yale Law School, so we thought they were heading east with Spencer and Olivia.
What Will All American Season 7 Be About?
Showrunner Nkechi Okoro Carroll aims to return the series to its origins at West Beverly High and South Crenshaw High.
The official synopsis states, “It’s the same heart, same NFL dream, same crosstown rivalry, same messy hormones, ushered in by a new generation of L.A. teens, a new Beverly coach, and our OG Vortex fam, who are supposed to be the responsible adults now.”
It will be entertaining to see them leading the next generation.
Who Is Returning for All American Season 7?
In September, the CW announced that only three original All American cast members were returning as series regulars — Michael Evans Behling (Jordan), Greta Onieogou (Layla), and Bre-Z (Coop).
We weren’t surprised about Jordan and Layla because Jordan had recently accepted a coaching position, and Layla had hired Jaymee to manage her club so that she could focus on the artistry side of her career.
However, since Patience headed East, I suspected Coop would follow her, so we’ll have to see why she decided to stay in L.A. and attend G.A.U. Law School instead.

Several original cast members may guest star during Season 7. Samantha Logan (Olivia) was the first announced. She’ll return in Episode 2 and reunite with Jordan (Michael Evans Behling) for a special occasion.
While Daniel Ezra (Spencer) is also scheduled to guest star, we can’t confirm whether it will be in the same episode. We can only hope.
Who Is Not Returning for All American Season 7?
Daniel Ezra was the first original cast member to announce he was not returning for Season 7. He felt All American 6 completed Spencer’s journey and was grateful for the additional episodes and the beautiful wedding.
“Thanks to Nkechi and the writers, I got my wish. Season six is ‘Spencer’s goodbye.’ I’ll miss him. I’ll miss our cast and crew,” Ezra said.
Ezra’s presence will still be felt in the show as he’s scheduled to direct and guest star in some.
Many other stars won’t be returning as series regulars, including Samantha Logan (Olivia), Cody Christian (Asher), Karimah Westbrook (Grace), Monet Mazur (Laura), and Chelsea Tavares (Patience).
We hope several of these pop up throughout the season, especially with how Season 6 ended.
Which New Characters Are Joining All American Season 7?
Mrs. Coach Montes and Asher probably won’t be making many appearances because there is a new coach in town.
Osy Ikhile (Black Mirror) will play Cassius Jeremy, Beverly High’s new football coach. He’s known as a tough coach who is determined to bring down South Crenshaw.
Nathaniel McIntyre (David Makes Man) will costar as Kingston Jeremy, the coach’s son and newly transferred quarterback.
In addition, Alexis Chikaeze, who plays Preach’s daughter Amira, and Antonio J. Bell, who plays Khaill, have been promoted to series regulars.
How Many Episodes Will There Be?
All American Season 7 will have 13 episodes. That has become typical for The CW.
It has been rumored to be the final season.
