David Boreanaz reveals next plans for post-Seal Team TV show

David Boreanaz teases next TV project after wrapping up seven-episode run SEAL Team. A familiar face to TV fans, Boreanaz broke out in the role of Angel Buffy the Vampire SlayerContinuing the show of a vampire with a soul for a spinoff Angel For 5 seasons before starring opposite Emily Deschanel for 12 seasons on the procedural drama Bones. The seasoned performer recently ended his run as head champion Jason Hayes. He's already looking at his next role SEAL Teamthe end is in the rearview mirror.

During an interview with Diversity to discuss his time as Jason Hayes, Boreanaz was asked about his next TV role. The actor pushes back against the idea that he's always working, offering context on how he's been consistent on the small screen for the better part of three decades. Though he declined to offer specific story details, the Buffy the alum noticed that his next potential TV role is “a love story for local mom and pop stores” Read Boreanaz's full remarks below:

I'm a stubborn Taurian, so living in the now means I focus on what's happening now. Designs I have now manifested four years ago. Someone says, “Hey, you've got this work flow.” And I say, “It's not that I'm looking at the pipeline of work. I have to say, “Where do I want to continue to grow as an artist?”

SEAL Team has allowed me to understand that dedication to get it done in a whole different manner. So yes, there's a lot going on right now. I'm healing, of course. It was a difficult time and a lot of great things are happening now. I think we will hear more about these fruits soon. I don't want to give stuff away, but I will say this: it's a tribute and a love story to these local mom and pop stores and what they're all about. And when I say “local,” it is the heartbeat of America, the heartbeat of the fabric of our society. (It's about how) the simple things in life have been taken for granted and if they are not kept or talked about, they will disappear.

It's a change of pace

Boreanaz, who served as executive producer SEAL Team, He had previously shared that he watches crowd dramas. This led to speculation that the actor would lead Sopranos-series type that has not been confirmed yet. It's not even clear what stage the potential project is in or what platform it would be a part of, but the general premise fits Boreanaz's new details. If development on this mystery project continues on a smooth path, it could come to fruition within the next year.

It may be that a humble mom-and-pop shop is the cover for something more asshole. This is an intriguing change of pace, however, as Boreanaz has always played characters who are nominally on one side of the law. Angelus was pure evil, although he was secondary to Angel. SEAL Team He tries to grapple with the blood-soaked actions of the US military, but Hayes is portrayed as a good guy. The role of the mob could mean Boreanaz can play a fun anti-hero. This is the type that NA only used occasionally Buffy AND Angel.

Depending on where the series ends, this would be it A change of pace in the current American television landscape. There are many series, whether streaming or broadcast, that change the lens on law enforcement. This link is sometimes direct, as is the case with such programs Chicago P.D on NBC. This is also a formula that appears in procedures High potential AND Elsbethboth on CBS where a civilian assists law enforcement.

Series focusing on the mafia are relatively rarer, even with massive success The Sopranos. Depending on how the plot details ultimately shake out and what the cast consists of, the mob drama would not only extend its largely unbroken streak of TV roles. It could simply allow for a weekly, episodic treatment of a subgenre that has been relatively unexplored, at least on the small screen.

Our take on Boreanaz's next role

He is a TV royalty

For a certain generation of television viewers, especially those who fell in love with the medium in the late 1990s and early 2000s, Boreanaz is a TV icon. The Resonating Vampire Angel Paired with Sarah Michelle Gellar's Buffy Summers, it was the first time many viewers had invested in the TV couple's arc and embraced the concept of shipping. The series, created by Joss Whedon, gained notoriety at a time when online communities were forming, with “Bangel“It will become a hot topic. This made it all the more painful when Angel turned into the soulless Angelus, although it resulted in what many consider to be BuffyThe best season.

Angelus was one of the biggest villains in the Buffyverse, and his every appearance left a terrifying feeling of uncertainty.

The breakup was even more devastating when Boreanaz and Charisma Carpenter's Cordelia Chase moved on to the spinoff Angel. As the main character, Angel stood alone in the absence of Buffy's romantic gaze. Moving on to the game at Seeley Booth resulted in another popular combination, with calls to Bones revival still rings true today thanks to the chemistry between Boreanaz and Deschanel.

SEAL Team moved Boreanaz into the streaming era, removing him from the role of a romantic hero and focusing on the bonds formed between military men. While there are similarities between Angel, Booth, and Hayes, they are quite different. In addition, there is the actor's sense of humor towards his own star, which he made fun of Family guy and again in BoJack Horseman. Even though he doesn't draw attention to it, it's an impressive run that continues to gain momentum after it's finished SEAL Team.
