With the fall season now well underway, things have been pretty hectic – and they won’t be lightening up anytime soon as we head into the holiday season. Before you know it, it’s 2025 – and with the new year comes a new season of ABC and Alexi Hawley‘s Nathan Fillion, Eric Winter, and Melissa O’Neil-starring The Rookie. We can’t believe that it’s been two weeks since our last update, but we’re coming back on a pretty strong note with a look behind the scenes of Season 7 night filming from Winter and new cast member Deric Augustine (Miles).Here’s a look at what Winter and Augustine had to share from some recent night shoots for the seventh season:

The Rookie: Looking Back at San Diego Comic-Con 2024

Fillion on “The Rookie: Feds” Cast Appearing: When asked about the possibility of seeing Niecy Nash-Betts, Frankie R. Faison, James Lesure, Britt Robertson, or Kevin Zegers returning as their characters from the canceled “Feds,” Fillion shared, “The short answer is yes. We are trying to create a universe in which we can all exist.” The actor and executive producer would go on to add that expanding the show’s ensemble and focusing on a number of characters has been a winning game plan for the ABC series. “The title and the idea that it was my show was always just a trick. It’s always been an ensemble cast. I’m so very pleased to be able to say this program can, at any one time, rest squarely on the shoulders of any one member of this cast,” Fillion explained.

Regarding That “Chenford” Breakup…: During the panel, the topic of Tim (Winter) and Lucy’s (O’Neil) breakup and what that could mean for the new season was discussed. While it might be rough on the characters – and their fans – Fillion noted that everything they’re going through will be worth it “when” they reunite – before changing that “when” to an “if” to play it safe. While noting that his character still has some personal fixing to do before he can do right by Lucy, Winter did allude to Tim making it up to Lucy in “different ways” during Season 7.
