The Rookie is back on ABC for its third season and one of the stars is on the rise!


Titus Makin is shining on screen as Jackson West in the upcoming third season of The Rookie on ABC.

"We're attacking all the issues really head on. ABC's giving us permission to not be shy about it," Makin said.

The cop drama is directly putting police controversies in the thick of the plot, with the #BlackLivesMatter movement taking over the LAPD in season three.

"We want that inside look as the conversations happening behind the scenes, between two black cops that are dealing with things on the streets, or the confrontation that would happen if you need to confront a cop who is racially profiling people on the streets. What would it look like behind the scenes between cops policing themselves?" Makin said.

As the world continues to grow, Makin's character, Jackson West, also grows exponentially.

"We've seen him kind of go through this maturing phase and now... he's at a point where he's manning up. He's standing his ground. He's standing up for what is right."

"I started in music. Music is my through line. I finally have like had time to get back to it. Butterfly Ali has a lot of new songs."
