The CW's hit sports drama is currently airing its seventh season, following the life and career of Spencer James (Daniel Ezra) and those closest to him.

Read his comment below:

This much I can share: Olivia will next be seen during the second half of this season — when Jordan needs her the most.

What This Means For All American

Olivia’s Return Will Be Vital For Jordan

Olivia's return is likely to be a major moment in All American season 7. Given how close she and Jordan have always been, her comeback will mark an emotional reunion for the twins, as Olivia has been absent from the show since the beginning of the season. While the specifics of Jordan's potential struggles remain under wraps, it's evident that Olivia's return will be vital in his storyline. Whether it is a personal crisis, a career setback, or relationship troubles, Olivia coming back to her brother suggests a heartfelt sibling moment that will include some much-needed emotional scenes.

Olivia last appeared in episode 2 of season 7.

Additionally, Olivia's reappearance could have implications beyond Jordan. Spencer and Olivia's relationship was a core element of the show for the first six seasons, and while they exited as a married couple, her visit to Los Angeles could also shed some light on their life in New York, and also provide an update on Spencer and his career. Whether Spencer accompanies Olivia to Los Angeles, or if her trip will impact their relationship, is yet to be seen, but viewers can likely expect at least an update on Spencer when Olivia comes back to her brother.

It Could Set Up Further Guest Appearances

Logan's return as Olivia is a much-wanted development for season 7. Her exit, as well as Spencer's, left a notable absence within the All American cast, and her return promises an emotional and character-driven moment that could be pivotal for Jordan's storyline this season. Given that All American thrives on relationships, whether romantic, platonic, or familial, Olivia's bond with Jordan ensures that her return will be meaningful even if it's brief.

It will be interesting to see if Olivia's comeback sets up something new in her story, perhaps opening the door for more guest appearances in the potential All American season 8. Regardless if it is a one-off appearance, her comeback is bound to be a highlight of season 7, giving fans the chance to see one of the show's most beloved characters back in action.

New episodes of All American air on Mondays at 8 PM ET on The CW.
