Is there a trailer for season 7 of “The Rookie”?

After last season’s cliffhanger comes this intense, action-packed trailer for The newbie Season 7 does an excellent job of building up the hype surrounding the dramatic manhunt for Oscar Hutchinson and Jason Wyler (Bailey’s ex-husband). It also teases the debut of two new recruits at Mid-Wilshire Station (which you can read more about later!), as well as the possibility of Tim and Lucy rekindling their relationship after a messy breakup in Season 6.

What is “The Rookie” Season 7 about?

As mentioned above, “The Rookie” ended last season on a major cliffhanger, with Oscar and Jason escaping from prison with the help of corrupt lawyer Monica Stevens. Without a doubt, Season 7 will kick off with this exciting storyline, which could also help set up the big return of Elijah Stone (Brandon Jay McLaren). Elijah, who was absent during season six, was last seen plotting revenge against the Mid-Wilshire team with Oscar. So only time will tell whether these four criminals are all currently working together. Another major storyline last season revolved around Blair London, an LAPD psychiatrist who leaked confidential information from her patients’ sessions with Monica in order to sabotage police operations. A remorseful Blair was eventually arrested during the season six finale. Perhaps in the future she will work with the Mid-Wilshire team to help finally take Monica down.

Aside from big dramas, there are also plenty of personal stories to focus on. Despite her fears of juggling family life and a stressful job, and Bailey’s unfortunate fertility issues, she and John still want a baby. During season six, the two shared a life-changing experience when she temporarily took in a young girl, which inspired her to consider adopting a child. Once the chaotic manhunt is over, the adoption process could begin in this new season.

Who stars in The Rookie season 7?

The newbie features a large ensemble of characters, most of whom return in Season 7 Nathan Fillion as John Nolan, Alyssa Diaz as Angela Lopez, Richard T Jones as Wade Grey, Melissa O’Neil as Lucy Chen, Eric Winters as Tim Bradford, Mekia Cox as Nyla Harper, Shawn Ashmore as Wesley Evers, Jenna Dewan as Bailey Nune, and finally Lisseth Chavez as Celina Juarez. Other familiar faces include: Brent Huff as Quigley Smitty (who doesn’t love Smitty!), Dylan Conrique as Tamara Colins, Arjay Smith as James Murray and Angel Parker as Luna Grey.

However, there is a major deficiency Tru Valentino (Aaron Thorsen), who announced back in August 2024 that he was leaving the series. Despite his departure, the show must go on, and Season 7 will introduce two new newcomers to the network. Deric Augustine will play Miles Penn, a police officer from Sugar Land, Texas, with two years of experience. Also in his first major screen role Patrick Keleher will play Seth Ridley, although not much has been revealed about his character.

Additionally, considering where last season left off, it’s safe to assume that some of the series’ current antagonists will also return, such as Bridget Regan as Monica Stevens, Danielle Campbell as Blair London, Matthew Glave as Oscar Hutchinson and Steve Kazee as Jason Wyler.

Your changes have been saved

Starting over isn’t easy, especially for John Nolan, who pursues his dream of joining the LAPD after a life-changing incident. As their oldest newcomer, he is met with skepticism by those who see him as nothing more than a walking midlife crisis.
