The Rookiedidn’t take long to gain recognition and acclamation in the police procedural crime drama series world as it brought about the story of forty-year-old rookie John Nolan and his troubles in the Los Angeles Police Department. One of the major reasons behind this was its critically outstandingly performing star-studded cast.
Starring the ever-so-talented Nathan Fillion in the lead, it had the likes of Alyssa Diaz and Eric Winter giving epic performances. But the surprising part is that none of these mentioned actors, despite being so renowned, is the richest star in the series. Rather, that title belongs to someone else entirely, someone who only joined the saga from season 4.
Who’s the richest star inThe Rookie?
Even thoughThe Rookiehas been winning fans over since 2018 and flaunts a star-studded cast, none of the actors attached to it are as rich asJenna Dewan. As it turns out, the actress who joined the series as Bailey Nune – the character who debuted as a firefighter before claiming the position of the show’s protagonist’s love interest – is the wealthiest in the entire cast.
According toCelebrity Net Worth, the actress’ current net worth has been estimated at around $30 million. This is the result of her work as an actress, model, businesswoman, producer, and dancer; not to mention her famous divorce settlement case with ex-husbandChanning Tatumwhich seems to have granted her much of her net worth.
Surprisingly enough, Dewan joined the cast in the fourth season of the series before being promoted to appear as a series regular for the fifth season. But then her character went on to get engaged to the main character – i.e., Nathan Filion’s John Nolan – so she is expected to have a much more major role in the series going forward.
OtherThe Rookiestars and their net worth
While Jenna Dewan is the richest of the cast, ranking just next to her on the list is none other thanNathan Fillionhimself. Even though he has been the show’s protagonist John Nolan since season 1, episode 1, the actor’s net worth couldn’t make him the richest actor on set in front of Dewan as he currently sports a net worth of $20 million, perCelebrity Net Worth.
Next in line is Eric Winter, famous for starring in hundreds of episodes of the soap operaDays of Our Lives. InThe Rookie, he has been there from the first season as Tim Bradford and later as Jake “Dim” Butler, his original character’s doppelgänger. His net worth, perCelebrity Net Worth, has been estimated at a $14 million fortune, as of writing.

Then there’s Melissa O’Neil, the actress fromA Simple Favor, who started as rookie police officer Lucy Chen on the show from season 1 before progressing to play her original character’s doppelgänger Sava “Juicy” Wu as well. According toJust Jared, thanks to her music and acting career, O’Neil sports an impressive net worth of $14 million as well.
There’s Alyssa Diaz next, who plays one of the most important characters – Angela Lopez – but still ranks fifth in terms of the richest stars on set. Being still a rookie in Hollywood, she currently flaunts a $5 million net worth (viaJust Jared). Standing alongside her with an equal net worth is Melissa Cox, who has been playing Nyla Harper since season 2 (perJust Jared).
After them is Richard T. Jones, who has been embodying Wade Grey since season 1. His fortune has been estimated at $4 million byCelebrity Net Worth. Following close behind isShawn Ashmore, who went from a recurring character in two seasons to a series regular since the third one. His net worth is reportedly $3 million, perCelebrity Net Worth.
Last but barely least is Tru Valentino, who has been playing Aaron Thorsen, the very rookie who was falsely incarcerated before becoming a police officer, since season 4 of the series. Still in the early stages of his career, as of this writing, he has managed to earn himself a net worth of an estimated $100,000, as confirmed byJust Jared.
The Rookie can currently be streamed on ABC.com.
