One Chicago will return to screens on NBC One Chicago will return to screens on Wednesday September 26, but there will be some big changes for fans.
In Chicago Med Dominic Rains has left the series as Dr. Crockett Marcel – it is unclear if he will return for season 10 to wrap up his character’s arc – while in PD Tracy Spiridakos left the show as Hailey Upton after six seasons as a series regular.
Meanwhile Chicago Fire saw several series regulars leave across the past season including Alberto Rosende as Blake Gallo, Rome Flynn, who only appeared in six episodes, and Eamonn Walker who had been with the series since its first episodes.
However, there are a slew of new names who will bring brand new character that Chi-hards are sure to fall in love with, so let’s take a look at who we can expect…
Chicago Fire:

He first joined the show in season 11, where it was revealed he was in the Academy with Lieutenant Stella Kidd (Miranda Rae Mayo) and that she did not think he was “51 material”.
Still, he proved her wrong, and eventually opened up about his past, after finding himself in jail, revealing he had an emotionally-abusive relationship with his brother.
