The wait for Season 13 of Chicago Fire is almost over. And as fans remember, Season 12 was jam-packed with gripping rescue missions and powerful developments at Firehouse 51. The exit of former Chief Eamonn Walker as a series regular brings forth a new member of the One Chicago family, Dermot Mulroney’s Fire Chief Dom Pascal, who is sure to shake things up at the station. Between the administrative changes and the developments in Kelly Severide (Taylor Kinney) and Stella Kidd’s (Miranda Rae Mayo) marriage, Chi-Hards are itching to learn what happens next at the Windy City firehouse.
“As the show keeps growing, these characters keep growing. There’s the challenge of what’s the next cool call?” Newman said in a May 2024 CBR interview.
“What’s the next little obstacle to throw in their path?” Newman continued. “And what’s the next step that can bring out the darker side to a character — something that triggers something for them, and they have a different kind of evolution? It’s been a constant challenge but in the best way. A real gift to have these characters that you want to see grow and take unexpected turns.”
