The return of All American's original cast members gets an optimistic update from executive Nkechi Okoro Carroll. It was reported back in March that the long-running sports drama would feature significant changes on the way to All American season 7. In particular, it was confirmed that Samantha Logan, Cody Christian, Karimah Westbrook, Monét Mazur, and Chelsea Tavares won't be returning in their respective roles as Olivia, Asher, Grace, Laura, and Patience. However, as with former series lead Daniel Ezra, they would continue to make guest appearances.
