Eamonn Walker Is Leaving Chicago FireChicago Fire is losing another regular cast member.
Entertainment Weekly has learned that Eamonn Walker, who has played Wallace Boden since the show began, will be leaving the show as a regular cast member.
However, it’s not quite goodbye yet. There are still three episodes left in the show’s twelfth season, and sources tell EW that Boden will appear before the show ends. (The finale, titled “Never Say Goodbye,” airs May 22.) Also, this isn’t a permanent goodbye. While Walker will no longer be a regular cast member, he could pop up in future seasons, as we’ve seen with previous departing actors like Jesse Spencer.
Walker is the latest cast member to leave the One Chicago family. This season saw Kara Killmer leave the show in February, when her character, Sylvie Brett, married Matt Casey (Jesse Spencer) and moved to Oregon. Meanwhile, the Chicago Police Department is preparing to say goodbye to Tracy Spiridakos, who has played Detective Hailey Upton Halstead since season 4. Spiridakos is expected to leave the show at the end of the current season.
Deadline was first to report the news.
