The CW series All American, which premiered in 2018, is returning with its sixth season for fans. The show has gone beyond football to cover subjects like racism, relationships and violence. And, with the way season 5 ended, there are plenty of new storylines to explore.
All American follows Spencer James, a standout football player at South Crenshaw High School, and his struggles. Forced to move in with Beverly Hills coach Billy (Taye Diggs) and his family to keep his transfer permit, he learns to juggle friendships, football and his multiple lives in Beverly Hills and Crenshaw.
Officially renewed in January 2023, All American Season 6 will premiere on April 1. The show's cast will presumably stay the same, except for Taye Diggs, whose character Billy died in season 5 and might not be returning, according to Entertainment Weekly.
The Cast of All American Season 6
The All American cast has remained the same for all five seasons, so there's no reason season six will see any changes. It is safe to presume Daniel Ezra will return to reprise his role as Spencer James, even though the formal renewal announcement didn't mention any particular cast members.
Season 5 saw the death of Taye Diggs, who portrayed mentor and coach Billy Baker. He did, however, reprise his part through flashbacks later in the season, and it would pave the way for Diggs' Billy to make a similar return in All American season 6; the actor hasn't ruled out the prospect of the character making cameos if the plot demanded it.
Following are the actors who will be returning to All American Season 6:
- Daniel Ezra as Spencer James
- Bre-Z as Tamia Cooper
- Greta Onieogou as Layla Keating
- Samantha Logan as Olivia Baker
- Michael Evans Behling as Jordan Baker
- Cody Christian as Asher Adams
- Karimah Westbrook as Grace James
- Monét Mazur as Laura Fine-Baker

- Kareem J. Grimes as Cordell "Preach" Simms
- Geffri Maya as Simone Hicks
- Noah Gray-Cabey as Frausto

What will happen in All American Season 6?
According to an official press release issued in February, the All American season six characters will turn to a "new chapter" in their lives. NFL draft eligibility for Spencer and Jordan has been granted, and Olivia is returning from London to carry on Billy's legacy.
Layla and Jordan are dealing with their relationship issues, while Spencer and Olivia need to get back together after a period apart. Asher is occupied with adjusting to life as a new father alongside Jamie (Miya Horcher), while Laura moves on to the next phase of her career and personal life following Billy's passing.
The main mystery surrounding All American season 6 is what will happen to Patience and if she will live after Miko stabbed her in the season 5 finale. Even though she will probably recover, it could have a long-term effect on her personality and her developing relationship with Skye.
The first five seasons of the show, All American, are available to watch on Netflix.
