Daniel Ezra as Spencer James looking serious next to Spencer smiling in All American
This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available. Warning: MAJOR SPOILERS ahead for the All American season 6 finale!
Summary All American star Daniel Ezra, who has been portraying Spencer James since the start of the show, has opened up about his decision to leave the series following the season 6 finale. All American season 6 has had plenty of twists and turns for the main character, including his successful bid to become an NFL player. After winning the Super Bowl with his team, he ends up getting married to Olivia, finally bringing his storyline in the show to a close.
Speaking with Deadline, Ezra explained his decision to exit All American following season 6, saying the story of Spencer joining the NFL prompted the move. The actor also revealed how he wants to branch out into new roles now that his time on the show is over, hoping to expand his horizons now that his character has reached his goals. Check out what Ezra had to say below:
It was about the end of Season 5, as things were gearing up for Season 6. When I learned that Season 6 was going to go into Spencer finally getting into the NFL…I realized that I had kind of completed the mission. I had done what I had set out to do in regards to playing Spencer. I’d always wanted to get him to the NFL. I’d always wanted him to put himself back together again and heal from his wounds and turn him into a man. I realized that, with this upcoming season, we had actually done that.
That, coupled with my own personal feelings career-wise, and just feeling ready myself for that next chapter and that next challenge. I’ve been playing this character for six years now. Everything in my gut felt like that. But I didn’t know that they were even going to say yes, that it was even something that was as much in my hands as it was. But again, this was a testament to NK. She was open to at least just having a conversation and hearing me out.
