‘Nash Bridges’ Turns 25: See Where the Cast Is Now, From Don Johnson to Cheech Marin
After he spent the ’80s protecting and serving the Sunshine State in NBC’s Miami Vice, Don Johnson switched coasts and played the titular San Francisco cop in CBS’ Nash Bridges, which turns 25 years old on Monday, March 29.
With Cheech Marin along for the ride as Johnson’s on-screen partner, the show was funnier than your typical cop drama. Premiering in 1996, it aired 122 episodes across six seasons. And in the years since the show’s 2001 finale, many of its cast members have found regular work on the small screen.
As we mark Nash Bridges’ 25th anniversary — and as we wait for the revival that’s reportedly in the works — scroll down to see where the show’s cast members are now.
Don Johnson (Nash Bridges)
Johnson currently stars as Rick on the NBC sitcom Kenan. He also had a memorable turn as Judd Crawford in the HBO limited series Watchmen, a show created by former Nash Bridges writer Damon Lindelof.
Cheech Marin (Joe Dominguez)
Marin, one half of the comedy duo Cheech & Chong, is slated to appear in the upcoming rom-com film Shotgun Wedding opposite Jennifer Lopez and Josh Duhamel. He previously hit the big screen in last year’s Robert De Niro comedy The War With Grandpa, pictured here.
Jodi Lyn O'Keefe (Cassidy Bridges)
O’Keefe recently starred as Lionel Davenport in the VH1-turned-BET cheerleader drama Hit the Floor, and recurred as Jo Laughlin in the CW teen drama The Vampire Diaries and its spinoff Legacies (seen here).
Jeff Perry (Harvey Leek)
Perry is a Shondaland stalwart, having starred on the ABC thriller Scandal as Cyrus Beene and recurring on the ABC medical drama Grey’s Anatomy as Thatcher Grey (seen above). Coming up, he’ll star in the ripped-from-the-headlines drama Inventing Anna, Netflix’s first Shonda Rhimes-created series.
Annette O’Toole (Lisa Bridges)
O’Toole, who played Martha Kent in six seasons of the CW superhero show Smallville, currently stars as Hope McCrea in the Netflix romantic drama Virgin River, as seen above. The actress’ other recent TV credits include episodes of the series Search Party, Kidding, and The Good Doctor.
Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa (A.J. Shimamura)
Tagawa recently starred as Nobusuke Tagomi in the Amazon alt-history drama The Man in the High Castle (seen here), and appeared as Hiroki Watanabe in the Netflix sci-fi series Lost in Space. Coming up, he’ll play former Japanese Prime Minister Yasuhiro Nakasone in the big-screen biopic Reagan.
Kelly Hu (Michelle Chan)
Hu, who’s also known for her parts in the Mummy and X-Men franchises, starred as Leilani in this year’s Netflix adventure film Finding ‘Ohana. The actress recently recurred as China White on the CW superhero drama Arrow, and voiced Adira in the Disney Channel animated series Rapunzel’s Tangled Adventure.
Wendy Moniz (Rachel McCabe)
Moniz currently recurs as Governor Lynelle Perry in the Paramount Network drama Yellowstone. Her other screen appearances of late include parts on the CBS medical drama Pure Genius, the Audience Network drama Kingdom, and the Netflix political thriller House of Cards.
Cress Williams (Antwon Babcock)
Williams might be the Nash Bridges alum with the steadiest paycheck: He’s been playing the lead role of teacher-turned-superhero Jefferson Pierce on The CW’s Black Lightning since the show debuted in 2018. Before landing that role, he starred as Lavon Hayes in the CW comedy-drama Hart of Dixie.
