When will the new chapter of the Bravo Team arrive? Continue reading to find out more about SEAL Team Season 7.
After completing six months of 2023, the fans are wondering what the current status of the beloved series has been since the sixth season ended earlier this year, which has caused fans to speculate what’s in store for the most elite unit of Navy SEALs. The fandom is wondering if they will be tackling a whole new wave of complex cases with heart-pounding action, and unexpected twists at every turn that promises to be an exhilarating ride!
Hence, if you are wondering the same and want to know everything, then we can assure you that you have reached the right place to know all your answers about the much-anticipated seventh season, which we definitely think is going to captivate the audience once again! So buckle up and get ready for another thrilling ride with SEAL Team Season 7! Here is everything we know so far about the potential release date on Paramount+.
SEAL Team Season 7 Release Date: Has it been changed?
Right now, it looks like the exciting news for the renewal of the show for a seventh season earlier this year was short-lived, as it sadly has been overshadowed by the ongoing 2023 Writers Guild of America strike along with the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike, which has completely put a halt in the production and writing of the show for the new episodes as many writers along with the actors have stopped their work until a proper resolution regarding their compensation has been made, and the situation doesn’t seem to come to an end anytime soon!
As a result, there is no way the show will premiere the new season in 2023, which makes one wonder if the series will return this year at all or not. For your consideration, we think predicting anything about the show’s official release date as of now is way too early, as no confirmation for a revised fall schedule has been issued by the Paramount+ network. But the chances of the series making its comeback sometime in 2024 seem more likely to happen because the filming, which usually takes months to complete, hasn’t yet commenced.
With a few months left in the year, the possibility of the show’s official return in 2023 is bleak.
We assume the release window will be changed just like ABC Network, who have also shifted their fall schedule in order to avoid any unnecessary delays in production, which, if it happens, will be confirmed by the show creators. Hence, this is just pure conjecture, and anything relating to its premiere date is subject to change, which will be acknowledged by the network in the coming months. Until then, if there is any confirmation, the fans will have to be patient and keep a close eye on the social media handles of the SEAL Team by following them to get all the latest updates.
Also, check out the renewal announcement as shared by the show’s Twitter handle, quoting: “Target acquired: Season 7 of #SEALTeam is coming to #ParamountPlus.”

SEAL Team Season 7 Plot: What can the fans expect?
The series will definitely follow in the footsteps of the prior seasons and be true to the theme that, as per the official logline, states:
‘Failure isn’t an option for the new Navy SEALs, and that kind of pressure can take a toll on the members of the special operations forces’ most elite unit. This team – which includes Jason, the group’s intense leader, and Ray, Jason’s longtime confidant, along with loyal soldier Sonny and SEAL hopeful Clay – trains, plans, and executes some of the most dangerous, high-stakes missions and deploys for clandestine missions around the globe at a moment’s notice. While serving their country is a worthy and rewarding cause, it can put a strain on the SEALs and their families, causing the guys to look out for one another in the face of seemingly overwhelming odds, both on and off the job.”
Moreover, when the seventh season’s renewal announcement was officially made by Paramount+, there was no mention of the SEAL Team stand-alone movie, which was announced last February, just days after the Season 6 renewal. Since then, 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.
So, it is pretty much safe to say that SEAL Team Season 7 would follow the events in the last season, with no movie between them, which is a great heads up for the fans who were curious to know about the project’s stays. Lastly, as mentioned above, the next season will pick up where Season 6 ended, “Fair Winds and Following Seas.” In the final episode, the viewers got to see a poignant scene where Jason (Boreanaz) is getting reprimanded for speaking publicly about his TBI. Then everyone on his team steps up, sharing their own traumatic experiences and putting Bravo’s future in limbo.
“We look forward to bringing ‘SEAL Team’ fans even more of the series’ poignant storylines and thrilling missions with the upcoming seventh season,” said Tanya Giles, chief programming officer of Paramount Streaming. Further adding, “The series continues to evolve and grow its audience. It is a great example of the types of programming that we see resonate with our subscribers.”
“They are once again in jeopardy but most importantly united, and when Bravo steps up for each other, they usually get themselves out of these situations,” showrunner Spencer Hudnut told TV Insider. “What [that ending] does is it kind of tips everything on its head a little bit. But at the end of the day, these guys operating, these guys being out in the field is usually the engine of the show. It’s really, can they get back to that?”
“We’ve done things like that in the past. I just think part of this decision was that just to finish Max’s work this season was such a struggle,” he explained. “The idea of being able to plan ahead and figure that out just seems hard, but we’ll never say no to anything. Clay’s legacy will live on within the show. And yeah, if there’s an opportunity where we could do something like that, I’d be all for it because he’s such a huge part of the show.”

SEAL Team Season 7 Cast: Who will reprise their roles?
The main cast from the sixth season who are expected to return in the seventh season are as follows:
David Boreanaz as Jason Hayes, Neil Brown Jr. as Ray Perry, AJ Buckley as Sonny Quinn, Toni Trucks as Lisa Davis, and Raffi Barsoumian as Omar Hamza. The recurring cast includes Jessica Paré as Mandy Ellis, Alona Tal as Stella Baxter, Parisa Fakhri as Naima Perry, Jusitin Melnick as Brock Reynolds, Judd Lormand as Eric Blackburn, Mike Wade as Wes Soto, Tyler Grey as Trent Sawyer, and Dita The Hair Missile Dog as Cerberus.
On the other hand, there can be some new additions and removals from the cast as some changes have already been confirmed that the next season will not feature Max Thieriot (Special Warfare Operator First Class Clay Spenser, a.k.a. Bravo 6/6B) after the character was killed off last season. Lastly, SEAL Team is produced by CBS Studios and executive produced by Spencer Hudnut, Christopher Chulack, Sarah Timberman, Carl Beverly, Mark Owen, and Boreanaz.
Lastly, the series is distributed worldwide by Paramount Global Content Distribution.
SEAL Team Season 7 Episodes: Where to stream?
The seventh season is expected to include a total of 10 episodes with an average runtime of 43–49 minutes, just like the sixth season. The episode count has been reduced because initially, SEAL Team was a broadcast drama, but after being picked up by Paramount+, all those sets must be kept year-round and are inactive for more than half the time, so the overall episode count has been set at ten every season.
The distribution of financing must be well planned out to produce the greatest episodes that the viewers actually deserve since all productions scrutinize their finances.
Additionally, SEAL Team Season 7 will most likely be available on all prior platforms that have the rights to stream the series, as well as on-air on FuboTV or Paramount. Moreover, all the seasons of SEAL Team are currently available to watch for free on the CBS platform. The series is also available to rent or buy on Google Play, iTunes, Vudu, and Amazon Instant Video, based on the viewers’ location with preferred membership plans that the users can choose from.
SEAL Team Season 7 Frequently Asked Questions
When was the series renewed for the seventh season?

What is the premise of the series?
The series follows the Bravo Team, a sub-unit of the United States Naval Special Warfare Development Group, the most elite unit of Navy SEALs, as they plan and undertake dangerous missions worldwide with little notice and the burden placed on them and their families.
Is the SEAL Team movie still in development?
According to Deadline, SEAL Team is a stand-alone movie that was announced 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.
As per the report, the movie is not dead, but there has been no talk about it over the last year, and it appears to be on hold and not actively being developed right now. Therefore, it is probably safe to assume that Season 7 will take place after the events of Season 6, with no movie in between.
Has the official trailer been released?
The network has not released any new promos for the upcoming season, which will take some time after production starts to wrap up, which will take time to happen with the ongoing writer’s and actor’s strikes. Moreover, the promotions usually begin a month or two before the official premiere of the new season, so there is still a lot of time left for marketing to begin.
In the meantime, watch the official trailer for the sixth trailer, which shows the pressures placed on the members of the Bravo Team, a sub-unit of the United States Naval Special Warfare Development Group, the most elite organization of Navy SEALs, as they plan and undertake dangerous missions worldwide with little notice, and the burden placed on them and their families.
