ABC's The Rookie is prepping for their eighth season.
The Rookie follows John Nolan (Nathan Fillion), a man in his 40s who becomes the oldest rookie in the LAPD and now serves as a training officer. The ensemble cast also includes Eric Winter, Mekia Cox, Jenna Dewan, Shawn Ashmore and others.
Now, after seven seasons, Nolan is no longer a rookie and now oversees a new class of rookies. The series, which premiered back in 2018, was renewed in early April for an eighth season, after scoring more than 11 million total viewers across linear and streaming, making it one of ABC's most-watched programs during this broadcast season, according to Entertainment Weekly.
The Rookie started production for the eighth season this past month, which was confirmed on June 4 on X by Deric Augustine, who joined this show's seventh season and plays Officer Miles Penn.
Melissa O’Neil, who plays Officer Lucy Chen, posted a cute selfie featuring her fellow castmates Alyssa Diaz (Officer Angela Lopez) and Lisseth Chavez (Officer Celina Juarez) on her Instagram story on Monday, sparking excitement for the upcoming season.
"warming up for season 8," the Canadian actress wrote as a caption.
