SEAL Team Spoilers Follow
Blue Bloods star Dylan Walsh has joined the cast of SEAL Team for its upcoming final season. Starring David Boreanaz as Jason Hayes, the series follows the elite Navy SEAL unit Bravo Team as they train and undertake a wide range of dangerous missions.
According to Deadline, Walsh will play Captain Walch, a recently appointed Commanding Officer of The Naval Special Warfare Development Group. Described as “by the book but also politically-minded,” Walch’s ambitions may cloud his decisions regarding the Bravo Team, potentially shaking up the dynamic of the existing cast.
The procedural drama will also see the return of stars Max Thieriot (Bates Motel), AJ Buckley (Supernatural), Neil Brown Jr (The Walking Dead), Jessica Paré (Mad Men), and Judd Lormand (American Horror Story).
The series moved from its original network CBS to streaming service Paramount+ for season six, which was a shortened 10-episode season. After a shocking cliffhanger that saw the demise of Thieriot’s original character, Clay Spencer, the show’s future was uncertain. Following numerous cancellation rumors, Deadline recently confirmed that the Bravo Team will hang up their uniforms after season seven.
The season is set to begin production this month (December 2023) and will air in 2024. Lead actor David Boreanaz shared his thoughts on Instagram, stating, “For six seasons I have been blessed, fortunate, and humbled to play such a dynamic and complex character as Jason Hayes on SEAL TEAM. We are excited to get back to work on season seven and look forward to telling more stories. To my dear SEAL TEAM family, a salute, sambuca three beans, ‘con la mosca’, for all your exceptional efforts without which this series could not have been made.”
SEAL Team streams on Paramount+ in the US, with UK fans able to watch it on Sky.
