Chicago Police Department: The main actor leaves the series after 10 seasons!

The starts follow each other and are not like Dick Wolf’s successful series. After the announcement a few days ago about the departure of Kelly Giddish (Rollins) from the New York special unit, it is the turn of the historical actor of the Chicago Police Department (the original version of Chicago PD) to hang up his police badge.

After the very first episode in 2014 in the Chicago Fire spin-off, Jesse Lee Soffer, who plays Inspector Jay Halstead, will definitely be. varietySay goodbye to the Chicago Police Department this fall in the United States for its tenth season.

“I want to thank the show’s incredible fans for their unwavering support over the past ten years, and a big thank you to Dick Wolf and everyone at Wolf Entertainment, Peter Jankowski, Matt Olmstead, Derek Haas, Michael Brandt, Rick Eide, Gwen.” Width, NBC, Universal Television, my cast partners and our amazing team.”– writes Jesse Lee Soffer in a press release distributed by Variety.

“Bringing this series to life week after week has been a labor of love for everyone involved in this journey. I will always be proud of my time as Jay Halstead.”.

A central figure in the Chicago Police Department since the show’s inception, Halstead recently became Voight’s (Jason Bege) right-hand man and finally married Hayley Upton (Tracy Spiridakos) in Season 9.

It is still unclear how the character played by Sofer will say goodbye to the series. But one thing is for sure: fans should prepare for the end of the “Upstead” couple.

Jesse Lee Soffer is not the first historical actor to leave the successful detective series, which is broadcast in France on TF1 and 13th Street. Before him, Sofia Bush, John Seda, Elias Koteas or Brian Geraghty left more or less suddenly.

Season 10 of Chicago Police Department, which will continue to star Jason Beghe, Marina Squerciati, Patrick Fluger, LaRois Hawkins, Amy Morton and Benjamin Levi Aguilar, premieres September 21 on NBC.
