The cameras have officially stopped rolling. Both FBI: International and FBI: Most Wanted have wrapped filming on their final episodes after shocking cancellations left fans heartbroken earlier this year.
The finales, airing Tuesday, May 20, on CBS, will mark the end of an era for the FBI franchise as we know it. At 9 p.m., International signs off with “Gaijin,” which sends the Fly Team to Japan on the trail of a serial killer. At 10 p.m., Most Wanted concludes with “The Circle Game,” where the Fugitive Task Force tackles a rogue government operative planning a domestic terror attack.
As the dust settles on the backlot, the stars of both shows are sharing their goodbyes…and it’s impossible not to feel the weight of it.
Most Wanted cast reacts to wrapping up its finale
Edwin Hodge (Ray Cannon) posted a heartfelt Instagram tribute saying, “Thanks to the cast for simply being their authentic selves. (…) The crew showed up every day to add their magic to make the show a hit as well.”
Shantel VanSanten, who joined in Season 5 as Nina Chase, called it “the end of an era for an epic adventure,” showing gratitude for being part of the #WolfWorld. Keisha Castle-Hughes simply but powerfully noted, “Closing out 6 years,” while Roxy Sternberg wrote on an Instagram story, “6 years later, it’s a wrap!!!”
Their messages, paired with behind-the-scenes photos shared by crew like Kelly Cattani, drive home just how close-knit this team became, on and off screen.
Eva-Jane Willis and Christina Wolfe reflect on the final days of FBI: International
Across the pond, the FBI: International family had their bittersweet send-off as well. Eva-Jane Willis (Smitty) posted a moving tribute to co-stars Vinessa Vidotto and Carter Redwood, the last remaining OGs.
“My favorite duo,” she gushed. “It has been an honor to watch them and learn from them.” Christina Wolfe (Amanda Tate) shared her thanks, saying she’s “truly grateful” for the past two seasons: “Thanks to everyone who worked tirelessly on and off screen… I’ll treasure these memories.”
Even Redwood took a moment to honor his long-standing four-legged co-star Tank, writing about “four years of hanging with this guy” in a tender nod to the show’s often unsung scene-stealer.
Despite impressive ratings and a loyal audience, the cancellation still stings—especially knowing that some characters might continue elsewhere in the FBI universe or in the CIA spinoff. But of course, things will change.
Both finales air May 20 on CBS, streaming the next day on Paramount+.
