Trailer: Niecy Nash Guest Stars in ‘The Rookie’ Two-Part Event
“The Rookie” Two-Part Event Begins Sunday, April 24th, 10/9c on ABC.
In part one of the two-part event, entitled “Simone,” Officer Nolan and the LA division of the FBI enlist the help of FBI trainee Simone Clark when one of her former students is suspected of terrorism following an explosion at a local power station.

“The Rookie” stars Nathan Fillion as John Nolan, Mekia Cox as Nyla Harper, Alyssa Diaz as Angela Lopez, Richard T. Jones as Sergeant Wade Grey, Melissa O’Neil as Lucy Chen, Eric Winter as Tim Bradford, Jenna Dewan as Bailey Nune and Shawn Ashmore as Wesley Evers.
