SEAL Team is coming to an end with Season 7, and fans aren’t the only ones sad to see it end. Toni Trucks, who played Davis, said that despite the “satisfying” conclusion to the show’s final season, she would love to see it continue in some way.
“I’m sorry [it’s over],” Trucks shared in a July 2024 interview with TV Insider. “I feel like seven seasons have gone by in a flash, and it’s sad. Some people were like, ‘Oh, aren’t you excited to move on to the next one?’ And I was like, ‘In a way.’ But I’ve lived with this person for so long that I’m going to miss her in some way.”
CBS announced in November 2023 that SEAL Team would end with season 7. In a statement to The Hollywood Reporter, CBS Studios president David Stapf noted, in part, “We’re looking forward to an exciting and satisfying seventh and final season.” The Hollywood Reporter also shared that a previously announced SEAL Team movie did not move forward. Trucks told TV Insider that she was “very disappointed” that the film fell through, but that she was “hopeful” that there would be more SEAL Team stories to tell.
“I’m always hopeful when I think about these characters. I like to think that they’re still out there and still having adventures,” she explained. “And that would be something that would be fun to come back to, either from a different angle or after some time has passed.” She added, “I can really see these stories and the audience being so attached to the world that we’ve created that it seems a little bit of a shame not to continue to explore it. If you want to whisper in someone’s ear, I’m all for you.”
How will SEAL Team end?
While she couldn’t reveal any spoilers for SEAL Team Season 7, Trucks told TV Insider that the finale will leave fans “satisfied.” She explained, “I was pretty nervous when I read the finale. I just thought, how could they write anything that would make me feel satisfied that I could get out of this? And I did. It’s weird to say after all these years, but I cried when I read the finale. And I cried even more when I read Davis’ ending because the way they presented it, I really didn’t expect what happened in the end.”
Trucks added, “I think the audience will be satisfied for all parties. You’ll get to see where everyone lands. And yes, it’s going to be powerful, but I think our audience will probably leave wanting more but still satisfied.” What will Trucks do after SEAL Team? She doesn’t know what’s next, but she said she’d love to do a comedy or “do something in the sci-fi world.”
David Boreanaz, who plays Jason Hayes on SEAL Team, also teased how his character’s journey ends in the series finale and whether he’ll end up with his love interest, Mandy (played by Jessica Pare). “We see that very strongly from the beginning. She sees the red flags as we progress to the third, fourth, fifth episode. She sees the cracks,” he told TV Insider in August 2024. “She’s there for him. There’s a beautiful moment in [Episode] 6 that I directed where she turns around and shows up and is there for Jason. He’s like, wow, I didn’t expect you to actually be here, did you? I’m on the phone or talking about solving a problem and my son just drank something that could have killed him.”
