Paramount+ has renewed SEAL Team, headlined by David Boreanaz, for a seventh season. The pickup comes two months after the popular military drama’s Season 6 finale, which ended with a cliffhanger. The delay, compared to the Season 6 renewal which came a week after the Season 5 finale, prompted fans to launch a #RenewSEALTeam social media campaign, which sent the show’s title trending multiple times over the last few weeks.
I hear there was no behind-the-scene drama, and the delay was due largely to back-and-forth about ways to produce the series more efficiently for streaming. Because SEAL Team originated as a broadcast drama, it employs sound stages and sets that were used about 9 months of the year to film 22 episodes a season. Now that that has been reduced to 10 episodes a season for Paramount+, keeping all those sets year-round incurs storage fees as they stay idle for more than half of the time. With all productions scrutinizing their budgets these days amid industrywide belt-tightening, I hear SEAL Team has been doing the same.
Paramount+’s Season 7 renewal announcement makes no mention of the SEAL Team stand-alone movie, which was announced last February, just days after the Season 6 renewal. There have been no details revealed about the greenlighted project beyond its creative team, star/executive producer Boreanaz, executive producer Christopher Chulack and executive producer/showrunner Spencer Hudnut.
I hear the movie is not dead but there has been no talk about it over the last year and it seems to be on the back burner and not in active development at the moment. So it is likely safe to say that Season 7 would follow the events in Season 6, with no movie between them.
