Mekia Cox, Alyssa Diaz, Nathan Fillion, Lisseth Chavez, and Eric Winter behind the scenes of 'The Rookie' Season 7 — Instagram

We’re not getting a new season of The Rookie in the 2024 calendar year — ABC is holding the cop drama until midseason — but the returning cast, which doesn’t include the exiting Tru Valentino, is working hard on Season 7 episodes.

Well, working hard and playing hard, as the pics and videos below prove.

Check out the stars’ silly, sweet, and not too spoilery social media uploads from the set below… and be sure to read up on The Rookie’s new recurring recruits!

Nathan Fillion

In his Instagram posts, the man behind John Nolan spotted some not-so-secret set surveillance, observed a sign of the times, found himself “a little horse,” got a newspaper shout-out, and praised costar Lisseth Chavez.

Diaz — a.k.a. Angela Lopez — reveled in the #Wopez vibes alongside costar Shawn Ashmore, snapped a #copmoms selfie with Mekia Cox, celebrated National Hispanic Heritage Month with the Rookie cast, and posed for a pic alongside Cox and Chavez.

Melissa O’Neil

O’Neil posted about how much she loves playing Lucy Chen on The Rookie, “act[ed] a fool” alongside Jones and costar Eric Winter, shared a spoiler-free selfie, chronicled herself re-recording dialogue, and played the filling of a Cox-Chavez sandwich.

Eric Winter

Winter, the actor behind Tim Bradford, got a snapshot of Mid-Wilshire’s finest, posed in the pod car, found Brent Huff (Quigley Smitty) in the break room, took aim during a scene, scoped out new locations for the show, and put in late-night hours.

Mekia Cox

As she returned to play Nyla Harper in Season 7, Cox showed off the cast’s new trailers, gave a shout-out to the show’s stunt doubles, took a pic with her partner in crime, bonded with a former-turned-current costar, and was “all smiles” with Jones and Diaz.

After welcoming daughter Rhiannon in June, Dewan brought the little one to the Season 7 set as she got back to playing Bailey Nune. And when the actor wasn’t in her character’s firefighter gear, she was showing off her dance moves in her trailer.
