The eighth and final season will debut on Monday, July 13 at 8/7c. with a special two-hour premiere.
The final season follows Jordan, Layla, Coop, Cassius, KJ, Khalil, Amina, and Preach as the pursuit of their individual dreams unexpectedly challenges friendships and family that are tentative at best after the events of Season 7. Focusing on the three pillars that have always been at the heart of the series - football, family and friendship - Season 8 picks up six months after the football cliffhanger at the end of last season and will span just one week in our favorite Beverly and Crenshaw crew's life. A week that will have them wondering if everything they've been through over the course of their lives has prepared them for this moment. A week that will ultimately reunite old with the new, friend with enemy, and alter the course of each of their futures forever.
The drama stars Michael Evans Behling, Greta Onieogou, Bre-Z, Osy Ikhile, Alexis Chikaeze, Nathaniel Logan McIntyre, Antonio J. Bell, Kareem Grimes and Lauryn Hardy.
Nkechi Okoro Carroll returns as showrunner on the final season. She executive produces with Greg Berlanti, Jameal Turner, Sarah Schechter and David Strauss. Warner Bros. Television, CBS Studios and Berlanti Productions produce.
