The cast for Season 8 will see some serious turnover compared to previous outings. While Moore and Harrington are still around, the team said goodbye to Russell and Johnson in the past season, and Aytes departed back in June with another CBS series, Watson, in her sights. After the second cancelation reversal, Aytes was not included in discussions as a series regular, though producers are still seeking a way to keep her within the show’s universe given the vital role she plays in Hondo’s life. Otherwise, the rest of the cast will likely remain with new characters, including a new female team member, to be announced as the release draws closer.
S.W.A.T. debuts its eighth and final season on CBS on October 18 at 8 p.m. with new episodes airing every Friday. Stay tuned here at Collider for more on the series as it nears its end.
