Bosch season 7 will introduce several new cast members and characters. Created by Eric Overmyer and adapted from the best-selling novel series by Michael Connelly, Bosch first released on Amazon Prime in 2014. The platform's longest-running Amazon Original series will come to an end this season.
Bosch season 7 introduces two murder cases, beginning with an arson-homicide inspired by a real-life case, and a high-profile legal case involving an investment scandal. Largely based on Connelly’s 2014 best-selling novel, The Burning Room, Bosch season 7 stars many familiar faces including series regulars Titus Welliver as Homicide Detective Harry Bosch, Jamie Hector as Detective J. Edgar, Madison Lintz as Maddie Bosch, Lance Reddick as Chief Irvin Irving, Linda Park as Jun, Amy Aquino as Lt. Grace Billets, and Mimi Rogers as Honey Chandler.
Several supporting characters from the homicide division are also returning in the final season including Gregory Scott Cummins and Troy Evans as Detectives Moore and Johnson — aka Crate & Barrel — Scott Klace as Sgt. John Mankiewicz, and Paul Calderón as Jimmy Robertson, among others. Annie Wersching will return as Bosch's former love interest, Julia Brasher, and Julie Ann Emery as Agent Sylvia Reece. In addition to these beloved characters, Bosch fans will be introduced to a number of new characters, with actors Carlos Miranda, Gino Vento, Vanessa Born, and Reed Diamond playing important, recurring roles in Bosch's final season.
Carlos Miranda as Det. Chris Collins
Carlos Miranda stars as Detective Chris Collins, a member of the LAPD gang unit, who helps Bosch and J.Edgar with their arson investigation. Miranda also has a recurring role in ABC's Station 19 as Theo Ruiz and was also in 2013's The Bling Ring.
Gino Vento as Mickey Peña
Gino Vento plays Mickey Peña, a leading member of the Las Palmas gang from the neighborhood where the arson takes place. Peña becomes a lead target of Bosch's investigation in the final season. Vento also stars as Nestor Oceteva in Mayans M.C., and he previously had a recurring role in the Netflix series, Bloodline.
Vanessa Born as Gladys Rodriguez
Vanessa Born plays Gladys Rodriguez, aka La Mayorista. Detective Collins describes her as "a female Stringer Bell," Idris Elba's character in The Wire - incidentally, the same series that launched actor Jamie Hector's career. Vanessa has had a number of one-episode guest appearances on various TV shows; Bosch will be her first major role.
Reed Diamond as Vincent Franzen
Reed Diamond plays Honey Chandler's newest client, Vincent Franzen, a hedge fund manager arrested for his involvement in running a $200 million dollar Ponzi scheme. Diamond played Daniel Whitehall in Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D and has had recurring roles in a number of other series including Designated Survivor and 13 Reasons Why.

Natalia Castellanos as Mayor Lopez - First introduced in the season 6 finale, Castellanos plays a recurring role as the new Mayor of Los Angeles in Bosch season 7.
Jonny Rios as Antonio Valens - Also new in season 6, Rios returns as Maddie’s boyfriend, Antonio Valens.
Bryan Michael Nuñez as Pedro Alvarez - A young member of the Mickey Peña’s gang, Alvarez plays a key role in Bosch and J. Edgar's arson investigation.

With the announcement of a Bosch Amazon IMDB spin-off show in the works, it’s possible that some of the new characters being introduced now will show up in the spin-off. It will be interesting to see which of these new characters will play a role in the new series alongside Titus Welliver’s Harry Bosch. Until then, Bosch seasons 1-7 are available to stream on Amazon.
