Series creator James Duff previously shared that Sharon would be considered for the post, but the competition is going to be stiff. She and two others would all be vying for the position.
"Sharon is going to be in the race for Assistant Chief [of Special Operations], and she will be in that race with Camryn Manheim and an as-of-yet unannounced third actor. And that will be the thrust of the back eight [episodes], which is: 'Who will get that job?' — and the changes that come with it," Duff said in an interview with TVLine.
Meanwhile, Sharon's adoptive son, Rusty (Graham Patrick Martin), will also have his share of hurdles to face. Recent spoilers reveal that his relationship with Gus (Rene Rosado) will be put to the test. Someone will get in-between them. Keegan Allen (from 'Pretty Little Liars') has been tapped to play Aiden Reed, a young restaurateur who will do everything to separate the lovers.
"Major Crimes" season 5 will return on Wednesday, Feb. 22, at 9 p.m. EST on TNT.
