Nathan Fillion John Nolan
The oldest rookie in LAPD history and the beating heart of the show. Also an executive producer — this is his baby.
Mid-Wilshire Division
Roll call: the cast
The officers, detectives and troublemakers of The Rookie — and the actors who bring them to life. A ⭐ means they regularly show up at fan conventions.
The main squad
Eric Winter ⭐ Tim Bradford
Tough-love training officer, inventor of the dreaded Tim Test, secret softie. One half of Chenford — and one of the most active con guests in the cast.
Melissa O'Neil ⭐ Lucy Chen
Undercover queen, karaoke menace, the other half of Chenford. A frequent European convention guest, so keep an eye on the tour page.
Richard T. Jones ⭐ Wade Grey
The sergeant who has seen it all, sighed at all of it, and protects his people like family anyway.
Alyssa Diaz Angela Lopez
Detective, mum, absolute powerhouse. Do not touch her case files or her family.
Mekia Cox Nyla Harper
Ex-undercover legend with the sharpest deadpan at Mid-Wilshire. Scary in the best way.
Jenna Dewan Bailey Nune
Firefighter, army reservist, aerialist, and about forty other jobs. Rarely does the convention circuit — treasure any sighting.
Shawn Ashmore Wesley Evers
Defence lawyer turned family man with a complicated conscience. Also tours as an X-Men guest, which is a fun bonus.
Lisseth Chavez Celina Juarez
Vibes-based policing that somehow keeps working. The aura reads are undefeated.
Deric Augustine Miles Penn
Promoted to series regular in Season 8 — and graduating to full officer in Season 9. They grow up so fast.
Recurring & the spin-off
Tru Valentino Aaron Thorsen
Back recurring from Season 8 onwards, and a regular on the US convention circuit.
Bridget Regan Monica Stevens
The lawyer you love to hate. Every scene she's in, someone's plan falls apart — usually ours.
Jay Ellis Alex Holland
Lead of the new spin-off The Rookie: North — an older rookie in Washington state, with a John Nolan cameo in the pilot.
