Available to watch above, the official trailer forStation 19’s final season was released on February 29. Tense, brooding, and promising more explosive action than ever before, thistrailer promises thatStation 19is ready to go out with a bang, both metaphorically and literally. The trailer gives us our first glimpse at the ramifications of the Season 6 finale’s biggest cliffhanger - Jake’s collapse. As well as this, the trailer offers reminders of all the often steamy and always touching relationship drama in the Seattle Fire Department’s most famous station, with every tentatively balanced couple and untapped sexual chemistry ready to be finally answered asStation 19waves goodbye.
Finally, the trailer ends with a glimpse at what looks like the final season’s biggest set piece - a pride march gone wrong. As a group of backward bigots attacks the peaceful display of acceptance, carnage ensues, and bodies seemingly lie everywhere, suggesting there may be some severe casualties. This proves thatStation 19isn’t just primed to go out with a whole heap of entertainment but also a parting message that will resonate with the show’s millions of viewers andhelp to keep its legacy alive.
Who Is In the Cast of ‘Station 19’ Season 7?
Station 19has seen barely any change in its beloved cast across the years, with Season 7 not ready to change that. Rejoining the ensemble for one final time are the likes ofJaina Lee Ortiz(Rosewood) as Andrea Herrera, the BAFTA-winningMerle Dandridge(The Last of Us) as Natasha,Josh Randall(Ozark) as Sean Beckett,Jason George(Fallen) as Ben,Barrett Doss(Marshall) as Victoria Hughes,Jay Hayden(SEAL Team) as Travis Montgomery,Carlos Miranda(Warrior) as Theo Ruiz,Danielle Savre(Heroes) as Maya DeLuca-Bishop,Boris Kodjoe(Resident Evil) as Sullivan, andStefania Spampinato(Le Mans ‘66) as Carina.
One notable absence from this list isGrey Damon’s (Aquarius) Jack Gibson, whose collapse following brain trauma as Season 6 ended left questions regarding his return up in the air. His appearance in the trailer suggests he will at least appear to wrap up this plot thread, but to what extent, and whether he survives, is anyone’s guess. Asked byRosterconin an interview what he would like his character to do if he survived, Grey Damon replied, “I’d like to see him explore the foster systems and maybe try to correct some of its corruptness”. Another name we can be sure won’t return to Season 7 is the dastardly Michael Dixon, portrayed byPat Healy(Killers of the Flower Moon). After dying in the finale, there is no chance he will return, although a villainously large hole is left in the cast, leaving room for a new antagonist to either join the ensemble or rise from the current batch.
What Will ‘Station 19’ Season 7 Be About?
Although there is no full synopsis for the upcoming season, it is clear that because it is the show’s final installment,all the burning questions and untied plot threads will need to be wrapped up. This includes the cliffhanger surrounding Jack’s collapse, the explosion’s aftermath at the firefighter’s ball, and the potential for Carina and Maya to adopt the child they saved at the end of Season 6. Perhaps more importantly, the revolving door of relationships at the Seattle Fire Department has been nothing short of impressive for six seasons, with these stories needing to find their resolution in the final season, highlighted by the once-secret and now very-public relationship between Natasha and Sullivan.
