As announced by Deadline, Tru Valentino will be back in season five of The Rookie and as a series regular!
His character, Aaron Thorsen, first appeared in season four as a rookie who was training with Mekia Cox’s Nyla Harper. Aaron spent the season navigating being a rookie after being falsely arrested for his best friend’s murder. His past acted both as a personal motivator and as a hindrance due to criticisms from his fellow officers and the public.
The Rookie is back this fall. The season five premiere is on Sunday, September 25 at 10 p.m. E.T. on ABC. Check out our other coverage of The Rookie here.
