A new wave of speculation has sparked heated conversations among Tracker fans — could Sofia Pernas be stepping in to replace Fiona Rene’s beloved character Reenie in Season 3?
The chatter began after reports surfaced that Sofia Pernas, Justin Hartley’s real-life wife, is set to appear more frequently in upcoming episodes. While her role in Tracker has been teased but not fully revealed, some viewers immediately began to wonder if this meant Reenie’s screen time would be cut or her character phased out entirely.
“Wait, are they taking Reenie away and replacing her with his wife??” one fan wrote on Facebook. “I hope not. Reenie is such a good balance for Colter!”
On Reddit, a thread titled “Reenie better stay in Season 3” quickly gained hundreds of upvotes, with many praising Fiona Rene’s performance as one of the emotional anchors of the series. Viewers pointed out that Reenie’s mix of sharp intellect, no-nonsense attitude, and occasional vulnerability has been key to Colter Shaw’s dynamic — especially when the cases get personal.
What We Know About Sofia Pernas’s Role
CBS has not confirmed any casting shake-ups. Sources close to production say Pernas’s increased presence doesn’t necessarily mean a replacement — her character could be part of a separate storyline or even a new ally for Colter. Still, with Abby McEnany and Eric Graise already confirmed as departures, fans are on edge about losing another familiar face.
The Importance of Reenie in ‘Tracker’
Since her debut, Reenie has been more than just a supporting player — she’s a confidante, occasional moral compass, and one of the few people who can match Colter’s wit. Removing her or reducing her role could fundamentally change the chemistry of the show.
Fan Hopes for Season 3
For now, viewers are crossing their fingers that Tracker finds a way to include both Reenie and Pernas’s new character without sacrificing one for the other. As one fan posted on X:
“Reenie AND Sofia Pernas in the same season? Yes please. Just don’t make us choose.”
Until CBS or the showrunners address the rumors, it looks like the debate will continue — but fans have made one thing clear: Reenie is not a character they’re ready to say goodbye to.
