The CW renewed All American for another season earlier this week, but its spin-off series wasn’t as lucky. All American: Homecoming has officially been canceled, and its upcoming third season will serve as its final chapter.
All American: Homecoming centers on Geffri Maya’s character Simone Hicks, who decides to leave her life in Los Angeles behind to attend Bringston University, a historically black college in Atlanta, and pursue her dreams of being a professional tennis player.
All American: Homecoming showrunner Nkechi Okoro Carroll said she was devastated to learn that Season 3 will be the show’s final chapter, but added she’s grateful for the opportunity to bring the authentic HBCU experience to our screens.
“We made this show for the culture and thank our loyal audience and fans for taking this ride with us. We made this show so that our community, our kids (and their dreams), could be seen and celebrated every week and we are proud to say we accomplished that mission,” said Carroll in a statement.
All American: Homecoming will return for its final season on The CW on July 8. In addition to Geffri Maya, Season 3 will also star Peyton Alex Smith, Kelly Jenrette, Cory Hardrict, Sylvester Powell, Camille Hyde, and Martin Bobb-Semple.
