As Spencer James, Ezra played the main protagonist
As Spencer James, Ezra played the main protagonist in the series, whose life in Crenshaw is turned on its head after he is recruited by coach Billy Baker (played by Taye Diggs) to play for a high school football team in Beverly Hills. The series followed the friendships and relationships made on and off the football field, while addressing themes of classism, adolescence and race.
Diggs departed the show in a shocking season five episode, while original cast members Ezra, Logan, Cody Christian, Karimah Westbrook and Monet Mazur left at the end of season six. After a time jump, “All American” picked up in season seven with Greta Onieogou (Layla), Bre-Z (Coop) and Michael Evans Behling (Jordan) leading the cast along with a new group of regulars.
Per an episode description, tonight’s series finale focuses on Spencer as he “navigates one of the toughest and most important days of his life. Meanwhile, Olis and family, old and new, gather as one chapter ends and new chapters begin for our favorite Crenshaw and Beverly natives.”

Television and CBS Studios in association with Berlanti Productions.
