All American had an interesting journey for season 6. It appeared to have a near-perfect ending after 13 episodes as Spencer was recruited into the NFL, won the Super Bowl in his rookie season, and proposed to his girlfriend Olivia. However, The CW decided to give the producers an additional three episodes so the season finale ended with Spencer and Olivia getting married.
This ties into how Daniel Ezra has announced his plans to leave the show. Also in the finale, Laura gave the Baker house to Jordan and Layla, Patience decided to embark on her performing career and Coop was choosing what law school to attend.
Thus, we had the perfect sendoff for Spencer’s journey as he can continue his NFL career. This has led to the idea season 7 will be a “soft reboot” of the show and The CW has confirmed it as season 7 will bring the show back to its roots.

“All American” is going to look a bit unfamiliar when it returns for Season 7.
Five more of the show’s cast won’t be returning as regulars when the CW series resumes airing in 2025 — Samantha Logan (Olivia), Cody Christian (Asher), Karimah Westbrook (Grace James), Monét Mazur (Laura Baker) and Chelsea Tavares (Patience) are all out, according to multiple reports.
They join Daniel Ezra – who starred as Spencer James since the show began in 2018 – who revealed earlier this year he was scaling back to only a recurring guest while also spending some time behind the camera in the director’s chair.
TheWrap has reached out to The CW for comment.
“After making the difficult decision to leave ‘All American,’ my sole focus became completing the journey of the most life-affirming character I’ve ever played in the manner he deserves. Thanks to Nkechi [Okoro Carroll] and the writers, I got my wish,” Ezra...

“All American” will look very different when it returns for Season 7.
While The CW previously announced that Daniel Ezra, who portrayed football phenom Spencer James in all six seasons, will not be back as a series regular, they’ve now confirmed that he’s not the only one. Samantha Logan (Olivia), Cody Christian (Asher), Karimah Westbrook (Grace James), Monét Mazur (Laura Baker) and Chelsea Tavares (Patience) are not returning as series regulars.
That means that only three original cast members will return full-time: Michael Evans Behling (Jordan), Greta Onieogou (Layla) and Bre-z (Coop).
Ezra, for his part, will be back to direct and guest-star in Season 7 and “other fan-favorite Og characters” are expected to appear as guest stars.

"Anyone can fall for scams..." Vertical Entertainment has debuted the official trailer for an indie drama titled Nigerian Prince, which first premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival earlier this year. Made by a New York-based Nigerian-American filmmaker, the film tells the story of a Nigerian-American teenager who is sent back to Nigeria indefinitely by his mother. There he joins forces with a dangerous internet scammer in order to figure out how to return to the United States. Antonio J Bell stars as Eze, along with Chinaza Uche, Tina Mba, Bimbo Manuel, Ebbe Bassey, Rita Edward, Craig Stott, Dean Cameron, Omar Maskati, and Russell G. Jones. This looks like it gets extra violent and way more intensely thrilling than it seems at the start. I'm definitely curious about this, looks like a well-made indie film. Take a look below. Here's the first official trailer for Faraday Okoro's Nigerian Prince, direct...

Rob Heaps (Imposters), Zach Roerig (The Vampire Diaries) and Paul Fitzgerald are set as series regulars opposite Willa Fitzgerald, Herizen Guardiola and Marlo Kelly in the USA Network pilot Dare Me, from Universal Cable Productions and Film 44. In addition, Joyful Drake (Let’s Stay Together), Tammy Blanchard, Antonio J. Bell (Nigerian Prince) and Alison Thornton (Girlfriends’ Guide to Divorce) round out the cast in key recurring roles.
Based on the acclaimed novel by Megan Abbott, who serves as writer and executive producer along with Gina Fattore, Dare Me is an unflinching exploration of volatile female friendships, jealousy, loyalty and the dynamics of power in a small Midwestern town. Peering behind the all-American façade, the series dives into the cutthroat world of competitive high school cheerleading, following the fraught relationship between two best friends after a new coach (Fitzgerald) arrives to bring their team to prominence.
