Has FBI Been Renewed for Season 7?
Reader, you are in for a treat because, yes, FBI has been renewed for another season AND two more after that!
You read that right! Only a few months after the Season 6 premiere in February, the entire FBI franchise was renewed, with the original series getting an eighth and ninth season, giving audiences the gift of renewal to 2027.
CBS knows how to put a smile on its viewers’ faces by giving them everything they want and more.
What Is FBI About?
The series centers on the inner workings of the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s New York City field office criminal division, which brings all its talents, intellect, and technical expertise to major cases to keep New York and the country safe.
The conclusion of the most recent season saw many loose ends tied up regarding terrorist organization leader Hakim Siran and the return of Missy Peregrym’s Maggie.
Zeeko Zaki, who plays Special Agent Omar Adom “OA” Zidan, recently told Screen Rant regarding the finale of season 6: “The final episode is a full-circle moment from our first episode, which is really exciting.

We don’t usually leave cliffhangers or villains that get away, so it’s nice to get an opportunity to close that loop. It’s also great to, again, just show our unity through multiple characters’ perspectives.
This is definitely a fun chapter closing on a pretty intense villain and what he did to us, and what he did to one of our own, and things like that. It’s just going to be a very well-earned ‘getting that guy’ moment.”
Apart from any news about plot or story revamps, audiences can expect Season 7 to pick up where the previous season left them and resume the case-of-the-week format.
How Many Episodes Will FBI Season 7 Have?
Through the years, FBI has been a little inconsistent with its episode count, with no less than fifteen apart from the sixth season, which was delayed wholly due to the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strike that slowed down production on many CBS shows during the 2023-24 broadcast season.
There is no current official episode count for Season 7, and mixed signals are coming down the news airways as the series was renewed for multiple seasons. However, specific episodic changes have been made to cut costs.
Who Is In FBI Season 7?
It seems behind-the-scenes shake-ups are happening across the FBI franchise at, as International isn’t the only one going through some changes.

The original series will reduce the main characters’ appearances to a minimum of two fewer episodes per season.
Missy Peregrym (Ten Days in the Valley) as Special Agent Maggie Bell
Zeeko Zaki (Valor) as Special Agent Omar Adom “OA” Zidan
John Boyd (Bones) as Special Agent Stuart Scola
Katherine Renee Kane (FBI: Most Wanted) as Special Agent Tiffany Wallace
Alana de la Garza (Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders) as SAC Isobel Castille
Jeremy Sisto (Wicked City) as Assistant SAC Jubal Valentine
While the sixth season saw a death in the family, the series is expected to return with the rest of the cast and characters intact, regardless of the tweak in prominent character appearances.
