‘The Rookie’ star Eric Winter exclusively opened up to Us about what lies ahead for Tim and Lucy in season 7 after their shocking split
The Rookie star Eric Winter knows his character, Tim Bradford, made a mess of things when he called it quits with the “love of his life” Lucy Chen in season 6 — but that doesn’t mean the fan favorite duo won’t make a comeback.
While season 6 featured a shortened 10-episode order due to the simultaneous writer’s and actor’s strikes, season 7, which is set to premiere in January 2025, will consist of 18 episodes. That means there will be plenty of time for Tim to explore his trauma — and find a way back into Lucy’s life. “Let's say maybe everybody thinks that that's his girl and he leaves her high and dry for no reason because working on himself,” he explained. “And you're seeing him put in the work this season, you're seeing her process that and how they can work together as colleagues. And we'll see if the romance is going to build back into something or not.”
“I’ll be honest, were never supposed to end up together,” Winter confessed. “This was never part of the scripted journey. The fans saw something between these two that was so opposite, and thought they needed to be together and really pushed it. And the writers listened.” “My wife's Puerto Rican, I'm from the U.S. and it was like bringing people together,” he explained. “That was sort of the idea behind it.”
