Three original cast members from Chicago Med are returning for season 10 following some surprising franchise exits.
S. Epatha Merkerson, Oliver Platt and Marlyne Barrett all closed new deals to extend their run on the NBC medical drama, according to TVLine. Merkerson, 71, is set to reprise her role as Sharon Goodwin, Platt, 64, will continue to play Dr. Daniel Charles and Barrett, 45, will return as Maggie Lockwood.
Chicago Med premiered in 2015 and follows the emergency department doctors and nurses of the fictional Gaffney Chicago Medical Center. This is the third series set in Dick Wolf’s Chicago universe, which also includes Chicago Fire and Chicago P.D.
The One Chicago franchise has been making headlines as several cast members across all three shows announced exits. The most recent was Dominic Rains, who will not be returning for season 10 of Chicago Med after playing Dr. Crockett Marcel for the past five seasons.
