For years, NBC’s One Chicago franchise has dominated Wednesday nights and earned a place in the hearts of millions of viewers around the globe. With Chicago Fire, Chicago P.D., and Chicago Med creating an interconnected world full of action, emotion, and human resilience, fans have grown deeply attached to the characters and stories unfolding in the Windy City. Now, the network has released some electrifying news that has fans rejoicing—and the future looks brighter than ever for the One Chicago universe.
The most immediate cause for celebration is the renewal of all three flagship shows. Chicago Fire has officially been picked up for its 14th season, ensuring that Firehouse 51 will continue to battle flames and confront personal challenges with the same fierce energy that has defined the show since its debut. Meanwhile, Chicago P.D. will return for its 13th season, promising more high-stakes cases and deeper explorations of morality and justice, particularly as Hank Voight’s leadership continues to evolve. And finally, Chicago Med will enter its 10th season—a major milestone that solidifies its place as one of the most successful medical dramas in recent memory.
But the big news doesn’t stop there. NBC has also confirmed that a brand-new spinoff series set in the One Chicago universe is currently in development. While the official title and plot remain under wraps, sources close to production have hinted that this new show will focus on a different branch of Chicago’s public service sector. Early speculation suggests it could center around a crisis response or rescue unit—perhaps a specialized division that operates in tandem with Fire, P.D., and Med. Others believe the legal system could be next, introducing a courtroom drama that ties into existing storylines and expands the universe even further.
According to franchise creator Dick Wolf, this new show represents a bold step forward. “We’ve built something truly special with One Chicago,” Wolf said in a recent press release. “This new addition allows us to explore new corners of the city, new types of characters, and tell stories that are more interconnected than ever before.”
