The Mentalist executive producer Bruno Heller has not yet spoiled details of the upcoming season, but he promised fans that the next series of episodes are going to be action-packed chase scenes for Patrick Jane. With Simon Baker's character's confession to Teresa Lisbon, it is expected that Season 7 sees the development of their relationship.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Heller said that Season 7 is not about tracking Jane anymore. "It's much faster paced, more thrilling, more action, more surprises. We'll still be delivering those mysteries every week. But just as you see with the last episode of the season, there's no more tracking and more chasing," he explained.

Robin Tunney, who plays Lisbon, commented that the Season 6 finale opened up a world of new possibilities for Jane and her character. Considering that there is an existing love triangle between them and Agent Marcus, fans will be greatly anticipating just how these events will unfold in the next season. 

"The Mentalist Season 6 finale is going to make a lot of people really happy, and I think it's going to make some people angry. I don't think anyone will feel in the middle of the road about it," Tunney told TV Line.

Karl Sonnenberg, who portrays CBI Karl, shared on social media that the production starts filming in August with the rest of the 13 episodes to be shown sometime in 2015.
