Chicago PD cast
Chicago PD, Chicago Fire, and Law & Order: Special Victims Unit will be sharing plots and principle players
Monica Raymund and Jesse Spencer
Chicago Fire
First came Law and Order, then Law & Order: SVU, with Danny Pino and a host of other impressive talent. Then, from another direction, we saw Chicago Fire, with Monica Raymund and Jon Seda and again–many other impressive people. Finally, this season NBC has added Chicago PD, a spin-off of Fire with some of the same cast–including Seda. And now, it seems, they’re all in it together.
Law & Rrder: SVU Raul Esparza, Dann Florek, Kelli Giddish
Richard Belzer, Ice-T, Mariska Hargitay and Danny Pino
There have been crossovers between Fire and PD since the first episode of the new series. NBC announced at the recent Television Critics Association conference in Pasadena that these crossovers would expand to include the L&O universe as well, with a crossover coming in February, when the SVU team comes from New York to Chicago to pursue an interstate fugitive. And there’s more in the works. “There is going to be a major crossover at the end of the season, a story that is so big it involves everybody,” creator Dick Wolf told reporters.
It remains to be seen just how much Seda, Raymund, Pino and the other Latinos in all the productions will be involved in the special events, but it can only be good news: more chances for more actors to do even more work, more recognized.
We’ll let you know as details emerge.
