Toni Trucks Isn’t Ready for ‘SEAL Team’ to End in Season 7 — But She’s Looking Forward
Toni Trucks is choosing to focus on the positive as she bids farewell to Paramount+’s SEAL Team.
“I was surprised when I heard we were ending. I felt like there was definitely more story to tell [about my character Lisa Davis],” Trucks, 43, told Us Weekly exclusively about the show’s seventh and final season. “But ultimately, the writers did a great job of giving her this final arc that I’m very happy with.”
Trucks has put her faith in the writers’ room when it comes to wrapping up Davis’ story.
“I felt like I needed to let them take the wheel and let myself be surprised by how things turned out. I just loved the final arc. I didn’t have any input — I just crossed my fingers and read the script,” the actress noted. “[At the end of the season] I can walk away feeling like I can let my imagination run wild with what Lisa Davis is still doing.”

SEAL Team, which debuted on CBS in 2017, follows an elite unit of US Navy SEALs, also known as Bravo Team, as they carry out dangerous missions around the world. After five seasons, SEAL Team moved to Paramount+ ahead of the show’s final season.
Trucks wants fans to know that while this is the end of an era, they’ll enjoy the ride, adding, “I’m happy with how it ended. And I think for the fans — I’m not going to say they’ll be happy when it ends. I don’t think these fans will ever be happy when it ends, but I think they’ll be happy.”
Season 7 has a lot of catching up to do, as the group isn’t initially on the same page — or even in the same country.
“When we start the season, Bravo and the whole team are going through the aftermath of [Jason’s revelation in season 6]. We’re all scattered [around the world]. We’re not a team,” Trucks teased. “We’re going to see the team in a lot of really uncomfortable places they’ve never been — and a lot of countries they’ve never been to before.”
Trucks stressed that viewers are in for “another satisfying, action-packed, heartbreaking season,” sharing, “Everybody needs to put on their hats and their tissue boxes and buckle up for our season 7.”
