But when can you expect to catch The Rookie season 7 premiere on ABC?

Previously, The Rookie season 7 had only 10 episodes. This was due to production constraints caused by the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes in 2023.

Finally, another exciting bit of potential casting information was revealed by Fillion during San Diego Comic-Con 2024. It is possible that the stars of the short-lived spinoff, The Rookie: Feds, may appear in The Rookie season 7 as well.
