The series The Rookie is breaking traditions, as it is being filmed outside the United States for the first time. The production of the eighth season of the popular ABC fiction, created by Alexi Hawley, has decided to move to Prague, Europe, where scenes are being filmed in the picturesque old town and the Invalidovna complex. This change of scenery could mark a new direction for the series, which until now had used Los Angeles and Southern California as its main locations.
Its seventh season will take place in Prague, not in Los Angeles
During the filming, which has been confirmed by several sources, including social media posts, actresses Jena Dewan and Bridget Regan have been seen in Prague. Dewan, who has shared her experience on Instagram, described the city as “absolutely amazing” and highlighted the stunning views during a cast dinner. These behind-the-scenes moments have generated excitement among the show’s followers.
The mystery of how the European location will influence the plot of this new installment has led to speculation among fans. Some suggest that the connection between Prague and the ending of the seventh season could be key; in that finale, an important character escapes justice, raising questions about the reasons for the change of setting. This relationship could enrich the narrative of the episodes expected in early 2026.
For now, fans of The Rookie will have to wait to find out what surprises these new episodes will hold. The series is currently available in Spain through platforms like Netflix, Disney+ and Movistar Plus+, allowing fans to catch up before the arrival of the eighth season.
