The music talent format has been renewed for its eighth season at ABC and 23rd season overall.
The renewal comes ahead of its Season 22 Grand Finale, which takes place on Sunday, May 19.
In February, Perry revealed that she was leaving the show after this season. The show is now looking for her replacement to sit alongside Lionel Richie and Luke Bryant on the judging panel. Deadline hears that there have been conversations with a number of high-profile stars but there is no deal for Perry’s replacement.
Jon Bon Jovi, who has been promoting the Hulu docuseries Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story, is a guest mentor for the finale.
The American Idol renewal is one of a number of pick-ups at ABC this morning. Other titles renewed include The Bachelor, Dancing with the Stars and Shark Tank. This comes after the network handed out renewals to shows including Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? earlier this month.
American Idol has provided consistently strong ratings for ABC since the network picked it up in 2018 (after it ended its run at Fox in 2016).
The series is produced by Fremantle and 19 Entertainment, which is part of Sony-owned Industrial Media. It is hosted by Ryan Seacrest.
