We chat with TheRecruit showrunner AlexiHawley about casting Noah Centineo, how TheRookie influenced his new series, and that cliffhanger ending:
Warning! Spoilers for The Recruit season 1.Alexi Hawley, known for shows Rookie and Rookie: Feds, is dipping his toes in the CIA with his new Netflix espionage show The Recruit. Starring Noah Centineo as Owen Hendricks, The Recruit follows Owen as he joins the CIA as a lawyer. Naturally, things get out of hand quite quickly as Max Meladze threatens to expose the agency unless they exonerate her of her crimes.
Ahead of the premiere of The Recruit, Screen Rant sat down with Hawley to discuss the show, including casting Centineo, how his Rookie shows influenced The Recruit, and that cliffhanger ending. Noah is so great in this role. He brings that humor, he brings that seriousness. How did you cast him? Did you write the role with him in mind?
Alexi Hawley: It's not a secret. I mean, she calls her my angel, but she does it in Russian. We went big on that ending, but it felt really earned. At the end of the day, we've been setting that up the whole time. You wanted it to be powerful, and you wanted it to be unexpected, but also completely organic to where we've been going the whole season.
