SEAL Team Season 7 Gets Updates and Behind-the-scenes Photos From Star David Boreanaz. Following the personal and professional lives of the Navy’s most elite SEAL unit as they carry out high-risk missions, it was announced last year that SEAL Team would be ending with its upcoming seventh season. Along with Boreanaz, the Benjamin Cavell-created show stars Neil Brown Jr., A.J. Buckley, and Toni Trucks.
Boreanaz shared a photo on Instagram to commemorate the start of filming on SEAL Team Season 7. Check it out below: In the post, the former Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Bones actor acknowledged the end of the military drama. Boreanaz, who is also an executive producer on SEAL Team, wrote: “The beginning of the end. Jason Hayes, Bravo 1.”
Near the end of SEAL Team Season 6, the show killed off original character Clay Spenser (Max Thieriot). Clay died trying to save a veteran. This storytelling decision came about in part because Thieriot was leaving for another show, the firefighter drama Fire Country, and Clay’s death affected the rest of the SEAL Team cast. Even in the season 6 finale, Jason Hayes (Boreanaz) was still struggling to come to terms with what happened to Clay and blamed himself.
Clay was replaced by Omar Hamza, who moved to Foxtrot, played by Raffi Barsoumian. In the SEAL Team season 6 finale, Jason also revealed that he had a TBI. He even went into detail about how it had negatively affected his recent missions. This didn’t help Jason’s case with his superiors because of the way Jason admitted it at the Navy Seals ceremony. Before the finale, Jason’s team defended him and shared that they were all dealing with their own traumas.
The question for SEAL Team Season 7 is how those higher-ups will react to that show of solidarity and whether the punishment will be applied to the entire team. But beyond that, the popular action series will have a chance to wrap up the story of Jason and his teammates after a tumultuous and tense season 6, which, thankfully, is not the final chapter.
