The season 12 finale of Chicago Fire, which aired in the US last May, was marked by the departure of Eamon Walker, chef Wallace Bodden’s translator, who had been with the series since its 2012 debut. The Barracks won’t be without a leader for long, however, as NBC has just revealed the name of his replacement.
Dermot Mulroney joins Chicago Fire season 13
According to the information DeadlineDermot Mulroney has joined the cast of Chicago Fire season 13 as the new fire chief, Dom Pascal. The face of the actor, of course, is not unknown to you, because he already has a long career.
Known for starring in the cult classic My Best Friend’s Wedding, fans of the series will surely recognize her from Friends or New Girl. It’s also not the first time Dermot Mulroney has donned a firefighter suit, as he already starred in Grey’s Anatomy spin-off Station 19.
Is there a boss battle coming up in Chicago Fire?
In the 13th season of Chicago Fire, he lends his features to Dom Pascal, a character from Miami, where he was a chef for a while. However, he started at the Chicago Fire Department.
He is described as a cheerful person who works very well under pressure. The way he leads his teams is very different from Wallace Boden’s leadership style.
However, this arrival must create some problems in the barracks. Before being promoted to deputy commissioner of the Chicago Fire Department, Boden actually chose Christopher Herman (David Eigenberg) as his successor. Therefore, the arrival of Dom Pascal will probably disrupt this plan.
Serial departures
Armon Walker isn’t the first actor to leave Chicago Fire during its 12th season. Alberto Rosende and Kara Kilmer also said goodbye in the first half of these episodes.
