For three seasons, ‘All American’ has been one of CW’s most consistent ratings winners.
Inspired by the life of professional football player Spencer Paysinger, the sports drama – which has consistently captured over 1 million viewers per episode – stars Daniel Ezra, Bre-Z, Taye Diggs, Geffri Maya, and more.
A testament to the show’s enduring popularity came in December 2020 when it was announced ‘All American’ would get a spinoff that follows young Black athletes from across the U.S. who are learning to deal with the pressures, lows, and highs associated with life at an HBCU.
Titled ‘All American: Homecoming,’ the new extension of the franchise stars Maya as “Simone Hicks” as well as Cory Hardrict, Peyton Alex Smith, Kelly Jenrette, and more.
