The highly popular action procedural SWAT has added a new main character for its final season. Created by the talented Shawn Ryan, known for his work on acclaimed dramas like The Shield and The Night Agent, SWAT has captivated audiences since its debut in 2017. With the availability of the show on Netflix in the United States, its reach and popularity grew even further. Initially canceled, the decision was ultimately reversed, leading to the upcoming seventh season which will mark the show's farewell.
TVLine has confirmed that Anna Enger Ritch, who portrays Zoe Powell on the show starting from season 5, will be upgraded to a main cast member for SWAT season 7, after having a recurring role in season 6. Ritch, also recognized for her appearances in NCIS: New Orleans and Chicago Med, shared her excitement about the news, revealing that she received the final confirmation right before production began, post the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes.
