"Castle" Season 8 will be introducing a new female character and according to reports, the new character might be spending a lot of time with the show's star, Rick Castle. Season 8 will be premiering this September 21 as per the latest announcement regarding the show's premiere date for its latest season.
According to a report of She Knows, the fans of "Castle" are getting worried as Rick Castle will be spending a lot of time with the new female character that is not Kate Beckett, whom he has been having a romantic connection with. As per the description of the role of the new female character, who will be a series regular, named Hayley, she is free-spirited, quick-witted, a former Los Angeles Police Department cop but now works as a security specialist.
Reports have surfaced saying that the new woman might be the new love interest of Rick Castle while others are saying that since Hayley is a security specialist, she might be spending a lot of time with the leading man because Rick needs protection. What her real intentions are still remain under the wraps.
Realty Today shared that Hayley could be in a love triangle with Kate and Rick for "Castle" Season 8 although there has been no confirmation about this assumption yet. It has also been cited by the publication that since Kate will want to run for Senate, she needs someone to protect her and be a consultant as well, thus the arrival of Hayley.
Meanwhile, IBTimes reported that there still has been no explanation as to why Penny Johnson Jerald will not be reprising her role as Captain Victoria Gates in the show. Kate might be promoted as the Captain for the upcoming season thus Jerald's exit although producers of the show did not offer any reason for her sudden removal from the show.
"Castle" Season 8 will be airing this September 21 on ABC.
