"There's Definitely Some Allure There": 'The Rookie's Showrunner Hints at Wesley Evers' Future DA Campaign [Exclusive]

The penultimate episode of The Rookie Season 7 saw a big shake-up in the race for District Attorney with its tense storyline involving ADA Sean Del Monte (Michael Trucco). It appeared that Wesley Evers' (Shawn Ashmore) colleague was a strong contender to take the seat, until he was blackmailed with evidence of his son Logan's (Benjamin J. Young) drug addiction amid an ongoing case against a member of the Eastern Front gang. Things only get uglier when Sean decides to do the right thing and take his son to rehab, only for the gang to confront the pair and nearly kill Logan. Fearing for his family, the ADA ultimately decides to drop out of the race, leaving the field suddenly wide open for a new contender. That new contender, according to showrunner Alexi Hawley, might just be Wesley.
