Although he has been hesitant to release details surroundingBoreanaz’s next series afterSEAL Teamends with season 7, he teased some interesting tidbits in June 2024 (perVariety). Boreanaz said, “I am watching a lot ofThe Sopranosright now.” When questioned whether his upcoming show depicted the Mafia, the actor responded, “No. You know what, I love suits, I love style, I love cars.” Based on these few clues, it seems as ifBoreanaz’s next project (which he will write and possibly produce and star in) will be completely different compared toSEAL Team,continuing to diversify his filmography.

Boreanaz’s four previous starring television roles have all contrasted, and this trend will continue with his next one.

Why David Boreanaz’s Next Show Being Different Is Good After SEAL Team
Boreanaz’s Is Avoiding Being Typecast
Boreanaz is wise to develop a series that is completely different fromSEAL Teambecause it prevents him from trapping himself in a box. Actors usually don’t like to be typecast, and if Boreanaz continued working on supernatural, police procedural, or military shows, he would be limiting his scope. The actor continuously switching up his roles allows him to keep his career fresh and, as a result, intrigues audiences.Boreanaz could have been easily typecast as a vampire after playing Angel for so long,but he has been able to diversify his catalog with successful, contrasting series, likeSEAL Team.
