T10 WHATS UP! September 25 - October 1, 2022 grabbed a little bit from differ- ent women in my life. She is a friend in your head or your fa- vorite auntie. I was like, 'I know this woman. She is a cul- mination of so many women.'" This character rundown comes as no surprise if you've seen Nash-Betts in any of her past roles. You could even say that she is known for portray- ing unserious law enforce- ment. Having brought Deputy Raineesha Williams to life over the nearly two-decade off-and- on run of "Reno 911!," Nash- Betts will certainly bring some levity to Clark and "The Rook- ie: Feds." She also gave an un- forgettable performance in the short-lived, wacky horror com- edy "Scream Queens" as secu- rity guard Denise Hemphill be- fore turning the tables for her lead role in "Claws" as nail sa- lon owner Desna Simms, who does some other (far less law- abiding) business on the side. Most details about the new series are under wraps for now, but Hawley did reveal at the Comic-Con panel that he had been planning "The Rook- ie: Feds" for a while. Hawley said, "It's a universal experi- ence, the restarting your life, the second chapter. So it al- ways felt like there was room for that to grow. Once we got a couple of seasons under our belt, we started hatching our evil plan to expand the uni- verse." Filling in the world of "The Rookie: Feds" are Frankie Fai- son ("The Village"), as Clark's anti-law-enforcement father, Christopher 'Cutty' Clark; as well as Felix Solis ("Charmed"), as supervisory Special Agent Matthew Garza; Britt Robertson ("Big Sky"), as Special Agent Laura Stenson; and Kevin Zegers ("Rebel") as Special Agent Brendon Acres. Having secured a new role within the LAPD at the end of last season, "The Rookie" sees the titular rookie start some- thing new again in the upcom- ing fifth season. Nolan has be- come a training officer in his department and is taking on a whole new set of responsibili- ties. Fillion told the audience at the Comic-Con panel for "The Rookie" that Nolan has "elevated to a new level of his job, and he's starting at rock bottom. I get a brand-new rookie who's making all the same mistakes I was making as a rookie." Don't miss the season pre- miere of "The Rookie" on Sun- day, Sept. 25, on ABC, where "The Rookie: Feds" gets its se- ries premiere two days later on Tuesday, Sept. 27. continued from page T2 Training wheels: ABC series 'The Rookie' returns, introduces new spinoff TV FEATURE 5 x 5 Melissa O'Neil and Nathan Fillion in "The Rookie"
