A world at war needs saving once again, and the only ones for the job are the brave members of the most elite unit of the Navy SEALs. The long-running military drama series “SEAL Team” concludes its run in a 10-episode final season, premiering exclusively on the Paramount+ streaming service Sunday, Aug. 11. The first two episodes drop on premiere day, with new episodes following weekly on Sundays.
The upcoming seventh season of “SEAL Team” sees Master Chief Special Warfare Operator Jason Hayes (David Boreanaz, “Bones”) lead Bravo team on a final mission to defend the United States against enemies abroad. These SEALs take on the most high-stakes missions at the drop of a hat.
In an official trailer for the new season, with blood literally on his hands, Jason ruminates on the violence he’s both endured and inflicted as a member of the highly trained unit and toasts “a new era of warfare.” He stands strong for his unit but must admit the voices questioning how he can keep going back into the fire aren’t wrong, especially as a widower with two children.
Also returning is Neil Brown Jr. (“Insecure”) as Chief Warrant Officer Ray Perry, whose looming retirement has him questioning whether leaving service behind could really be an option for him. Special Warfare Operator Sonny Quinn (A.J. Buckley, “Justified”) faces changing tactics and grief this season, while Lt. Lisa Davis (Toni Trucks, “Corporate”) directs the team in a new direction that they may not all be ready to embrace.
“Operations like this are the next era of warfare ... invisible tactics with global consequences,” Davis explains in the official trailer before emphasizing: “evolve or fall behind.”
There’s also talk of brotherhood throughout the trailer, with action shots of firefights, explosions and covert operations next to heartfelt moments with the families Bravo team leaves behind when duty calls.
Bravo team is called upon to step in and complete a complicated mission on behalf of its country. Uprooted from their family lives back home, SEAL team members drop everything to fight for peace in a foreign land. This time, part of the season was filmed on location in Colombia.
Season 6 cast addition Raffi Barsoumian (“DC’s Legends of Tomorrow”) is back as Senior Chief Special Warfare Operator Omar Hamza, whose new responsibilities in the unit help him immerse himself in the work to escape the trauma of his past.
Two new members join the unit for the series’ final season. Beau Knapp (“Road House,” 2024) is Drew Franklin, a chief special warfare officer; and “Blue Bloods” actor Dylan Walsh puts aside his NYC mayoral duties to slip into character as Capt. Walch.
Returning in recurring roles are Tyler Grey (“Northbound”) as Trent Sawyer; Justin Melnick (“Justified: City Primeval”) as Brock Reynolds; Alona Tal (“Truth Be Told”) as Stella Baxter; and Parisa Fakhri (“What We Do In the Shadows”) as Naima Perry.
The cast and crew of “SEAL Team” started saying their goodbyes to Bravo team when it was officially announced by Paramount+ that the series would end with its seventh season back in November of last year.
Boreanaz, also an executive producer of the series, reflected on his time making the show in a statement: “For six seasons I have been fortunate and blessed to be a part of an outstanding cast and crew. Every day spent was a note of thanks to our men and women in the military and Special Ops.”
