As the FBI franchise continues to evolve, the spotlight now shines on its flagship show, which is gearing up for an action-packed return with Season 8. Despite the cancellations of its spin-offs, FBI: Most Wanted and FBI: International, the core show remains a key pillar in the franchise, and its upcoming season promises plenty of suspense and drama.

The production of Season 8 is officially underway, and to mark the occasion, Wolf Entertainment, Dick Wolf’s production company, shared a sneak peek with fans on Instagram. The behind-the-scenes photo featured Zeeko Zaki and Missy Peregrym, who play agents Omar Adom “OA” Zidan and Maggie Bell respectively. The pair was seen laughing and sharing a light-hearted moment, offering a brief break from their intense roles as FBI agents. Known for their stoic, no-nonsense approach to cases, this rare behind-the-scenes glimpse humanizes the duo, reminding fans of their chemistry both on and off-screen.

Season 8 Spoilers and Expectations:

FBI returns with a high-stakes narrative centered around the potential infiltration of the FBI itself. Season 7 ended with the team’s victory over the mysterious and shadowy organization Forefront, but with lingering doubts about whether there are still members at large. As a result, Season 8 will dive deeper into the team’s struggle to ensure that the FBI isn’t compromised. Fans will also be revisiting the cliffhanger that closed out Season 7: Isobel’s collapse. The question of her fate is still up in the air, leaving viewers on the edge of their seats. Jeremy Sisto, who portrays Jubal Valentine, hinted that Isobel’s fate would be a game-changer for the show, adding emotional depth to the unfolding narrative.

A New Addition to the FBI Universe:

While FBI remains the flagship show in the franchise, it won’t be alone in the lineup for long. CIA, a new procedural inspired by FBI, is set to premiere during the midseason. The show will explore the high-stakes, morally ambiguous world of the CIA. Tom Ellis leads the cast as Hart Hoxton, a charming, unpredictable, and morally complex agent who operates outside the traditional law enforcement system. Sisto has expressed his excitement about the new show, revealing that he hopes Jubal Valentine may make an appearance, potentially linking the two series. While nothing has been confirmed yet, the potential crossover has fans excited for what’s to come.

Final Thoughts:

With Season 8 on the horizon, fans can expect FBI to continue delivering edge-of-your-seat suspense, complex cases, and character development that has made the show a staple of the procedural genre. As the team tackles new challenges, the stakes are higher than ever. And with the CIA spin-off joining the fold, the FBI universe is set to expand, offering more exciting narratives to explore.

Don’t miss out on FBI Season 8, premiering later this year. Stay tuned for more updates and behind-the-scenes glimpses as the show continues to evolve!

Michael and Dylan on his 25th birthday

Dylan is the son of Michael and Catherine Zeta-Jones, 55, who married in 2000. Born the same year, Dylan arrived just two years before his younger sister, Carys, 22. The siblings grew up largely out of the public eye but have shared glimpses of their close bond over the years, often appearing together at red carpet events and in their parents’ social media posts.

Like his little sister, Dylan attended Brown University. In 2016, he spoke publicly about his experience with dyslexia, something both parents championed. Catherine proudly posted a clip of his speech on Instagram at the time, writing: “My son Dylan at age 15, talking about his dyslexia so eloquently. Hard work with good teachers. Forever indebted. #educationforall.”

Both Dylan and Carys have accompanied their famous parents to fashion shows, movie premieres, and award ceremonies. In 2022, Dylan attended the premiere of Netflix’s Wednesday as his mother’s date. Catherine, who plays Morticia Addams in the hit series, told PEOPLE on the red carpet: “Well first of all, [my] husband Michael is very happy that this is my date! A collaboration between the two of us, the gift that keeps on giving.”

She added that both of her children have been “so incredibly supportive” of her, calling having them by her side “a blessing.”

Dylan has also shown a daring streak. In 2019, he posted a video of himself skydiving to Instagram. Michael later reacted to the stunt during an appearance on The Ellen Show, saying: “I remember that age. It’s a hormonal thing, I think, for boys—testing yourself.”

Catherine often brings Dylan as her date to events

While his early brush with show business came in 2011 when he voiced a role in Phineas and Ferb, Dylan is now making his on-screen debut. He’s set to star in the upcoming psychological thriller I Will Come to You, playing the lead role of Julian Marks. Speaking to Variety about the role, he said: “I was drawn to this role because of its complexity and depth. I am looking forward to bringing this character to life and being a part of a project that pushes boundaries.”
