The Secret Behind Nathan Fillion’s Bloopers: Is It a ‘Smear Campaign’?

We’re not sure that we’re buying into The Rookie star Nathan Fillion’s claim that he’s the victim of an AI blooper smear campaign.With less than two months to go until ABC and Alexi Hawley‘s Nathan FillionEric Winter, and Melissa O’Neil-starring The Rookie returns for its seventh season on Tuesday, January 7th, Fillion is sharing some behind-the-scenes fun to help brighten some fans’ days. In the video titled “ID’ing SUSPECTS with OFFICER JOHN NOLAN,” Fillion is joined by co-star Lisseth Chavez for a scene that sees Fillion having some serious issues with a suspect’s name – and no, they’re not named “Truman Capote.” Though Fillion thinks he knows what’s going on…

“We never make mistakes on our show. This is most likely AI-generated,” Fillion noted in the caption to his Instagram post with the blooper view – which you can check out below:

Fillion on “The Rookie: Feds” Cast Appearing: When asked about the possibility of seeing Niecy Nash-Betts, Frankie R. Faison, James Lesure, Britt Robertson, or Kevin Zegers returning as their characters from the canceled “Feds,” Fillion shared, “The short answer is yes. We are trying to create a universe in which we can all exist.” The actor and executive producer would go on to add that expanding the show’s ensemble and focusing on a number of characters has been a winning game plan for the ABC series. “The title and the idea that it was my show was always just a trick. It’s always been an ensemble cast. I’m so very pleased to be able to say this program can, at any one time, rest squarely on the shoulders of any one member of this cast,” Fillion explained.

Regarding That “Chenford” Breakup…: During the panel, the topic of Tim (Winter) and Lucy’s (O’Neil) breakup and what that could mean for the new season was discussed. While it might be rough on the characters – and their fans – Fillion noted that everything they’re going through will be worth it “when” they reunite – before changing that “when” to an “if” to play it safe. While noting that his character still has some personal fixing to do before he can do right by Lucy, Winter did allude to Tim making it up to Lucy in “different ways” during Season 7.
