The Rookie's Lisseth Chavez & Deric Augustine Tease the Biggest Season Yet in Season 8

The Rookie kicks off Season 8 with an explosive start, taking John Nolan (Nathan Fillion), Bailey Nune (Jenna Dewan), and Nyla Harper (Mekia Cox) all the way to Prague with Monica Stevens (Bridget Regan) after her shocking immunity deal made at the end of Season 7. While most of the Mid-Wilshire division won't be headed to Europe alongside the trio, they will be assisting back at home in Los Angeles. Collider spoke with Lisseth Chavez, who plays Celina Juarez, and Deric Augustine, who plays Miles Penn, about the newest season of the show. As a recently graduated rookie, Chavez updated us on the status of Celina's relationship with Rodge (Zander Hawley) and her challenges as a newly minted police officer. Augustine's Miles Penn is still training under the watchful eye of Tim Bradford (Eric Winter) and gives us updates on his status and his character's journey in his sophomore season. As two of the actors who did not get to go to Czechia, Chavez and Augustine also did a little bit of brainstorming on where they'd like to see their characters end up should The Rookie take on another international mission.

The Rookie Season 8 premieres on January 6 on ABC in the U.S.
