Danny DeVito Stars as “Golden Bachelor” in Sunny Season 17

Danny DeVito Becomes the “Golden Bachelor” in New ‘It’s Always Sunny’ Trailer

The trailer for Season 17 of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia is out now, and it’s already getting a lot of attention.

One of the biggest surprises? Danny DeVito’s character, Frank Reynolds, takes on the role of a parody “Golden Bachelor,” complete with roses, limos, and over-the-top romance.

The trailer features ABC host Jesse Palmer introducing Frank as the newest bachelor in a hilarious twist that spoofs reality TV dating shows.

Frank’s search for love doesn’t follow the usual path. In true Sunny style, he says he's after a “grade-A, prime-cut piece of ass,” setting the tone for a season packed with wild humor and unpredictable moments.

Fans of the series can expect the same outrageous antics that have kept the show running for nearly two decades.

Season 17 will also feature crossovers with popular series like Abbott Elementary, continuing the shared universe tease that began earlier this year. The trailer hints that the Sunny gang will cause their usual chaos in new settings, including a classroom environment and possibly more unexpected locations.

The new season will premiere on FXX on July 9, 2025, with episodes available for streaming on Hulu the next day.

All main cast members return, including Charlie Day, Rob McElhenney, Kaitlin Olson, Glenn Howerton, and of course, Danny DeVito.

Fans are also excited about possible nods to other shows like The Bear, and this season promises new adventures, bold storytelling, and a heavy dose of satire.

After so many years, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia still manages to surprise its audience with fresh ideas and familiar chaos.
