American Idol Season 25 production updates
Overview
ABC has confirmed the host and judging panel for the 25th season of ‘American Idol’, which is scheduled to return in early 2027. Ryan Seacrest will return as host, while the judging panel will remain unchanged with Carrie Underwood, Luke Bryan, and Lionel Richie. This upcoming season marks the 10th year for both Bryan and Richie as judges on the ABC version of the program.
A notable change for the new season is the relocation of production to the Atlanta, Georgia area, ending more than 20 years of filming in Los Angeles. Luke Bryan stated in an interview that the show has become “like a family” to him and that he anticipates the milestone season will feature “many nostalgic moments.”
