Nathan Fillion’s former co-stars on the series Firefly and Castle have been reuniting with the actor on his current show, The Rookie.
Nathan Fillion's The Rookie is one of the most popular network dramas on TV, and eight of Nathan's co-stars from his previous series have made cameos on the police procedural. Fillion was first introduced to audiences as Captain Malcolm Reynolds, pilot of the spaceship Serenity and the leader of a band of smugglers in the 2002 series Firefly, which became a cult hit even though it was canceled by Fox after one season.

Ellroy meets Fillion's Officer Nolan in the season 2 episode, "Clean Cut" whereupon the two are shot by killers at a crime scene.

Bourne is a benevolent lawman who allows Fillion's Reynolds and the Serenity crew to leave after they return stolen medicine to the town.

That dynamic was revisited when Alexis actress, Molly C. Quinn, appeared in two episodes of The Rookie as Cindy, the illegitimate child of felon Oscar Hutchinson.
