FBI season 7 cast update: A major exit and a new agent joins the team

As a dedicated fan of the FBI series who has been through thick and thin with Tiffany Wallace, I must admit that the news of Katherine Renee Kane’s departure from the show leaves me with a mix of emotions. On one hand, I understand her need to explore new creative endeavors and wish her all the best for her future projects. On the other hand, it feels like saying goodbye to an old friend, someone who has been there through every twist and turn in the FBI’s investigations.


The upcoming TV season for fall is quickly approaching, and with it comes a surge of casting news announcements. Most recently, updates on the show FBI have surfaced. Although specific details about Season 7’s plotline remain scarce, we can confirm that one agent will no longer be part of the team.

As a gamer, I’d put it like this: “I, Katherine Renee Kane, am stepping away from the series. It’s time for me to explore fresh creative horizons. I’m pumped about what lies ahead and I send my best wishes to the show, may it continue to thrive!”

In the approaching season, you can expect to see Kane featured in at least one episode. Fingers crossed, this episode could serve as a heartfelt send-off for Tiffany Wallace, allowing fans to bid adieu in a manner consistent with her narrative arc, and maybe even setting up possibilities for future guest appearances.

After the season 6 finale left viewers debating whether Tiffany’s killing of Hakeem was justified or not, it’s plausible that the series will revisit this storyline, despite it appearing that the case had been closed. Hakeem was seen with a gun on him and Maggie didn’t have a clear view to witness Tiffany’s actions. The shooting wasn’t portrayed as an unjustified one.

Without Hakeem being involved anymore, it seemed as though the FBI was letting go of Tiffany’s deep remorse over Agent Hobbs’ death and shifting focus. However, revisiting this storyline might explain why she leaves the team. If she continues to struggle with maintaining her composure in the field, she could be transferred to a different division or take some time off for self-healing.

Alternatively, Tiffany’s departure might be described differently. At present, it appears that a fresh team member, Lisette Olivera, is set to arrive, taking over Tiffany’s role temporarily. According to Deadline, Lisette will portray Syd, an agent from the Behavioral Analysis Unit. She’ll work alongside Scola in the field. While specific details about her background haven’t been revealed yet, sources suggest that she has a complex personality and professional history that will enable her to adapt smoothly as a field agent, despite her previous experience being primarily desk-based.

Since 2018, when the series started airing, there have been two significant departures from the main cast of the FBI show. Actress Sela Ward played Special Agent in Charge Dana Mosier for a single season before leaving, and Ebonée Noel, who portrayed Kristen Chazal, parted ways with the show following two seasons. These exits were handled subtly within the narrative, without much fuss, and the team managed to carry on smoothly. New additions to the cast include Alana de la Garza as Special Agent in Charge Isobel Castille, Katherine Renee Kane, and John Boyd as Special Agent Stuart Scola.

Shantel VanSanten, who portrays Special Agent Nina Chase (previously a recurring character), departed the main series prior to season 6, not as an exit but rather to join the cast of FBI: Most Wanted. However, she continues to appear on FBI for crossover episodes. This season, there may be one or even two such appearances planned for television.
