Summary
A newChicago Fireseason 13 report reveals Wallace Boden’s replacement won’t be from Firehouse 51. Despite its shorter year, One Chicago made the most of its time with a busy season 12. Unfortunately, it came with many departures from the firehouse for various reasons. However, work continued for Boden and his team, bringing in new people to fill in the void, including the introduction ofBenny Severide’s son Jack Damon. Sadly,Chicago Fireseason 12 ended with arguably the biggest loss in One Chicago as Boden departed the team. As the leader helped with the transition, he chose a moreseasoned firefighter in Christopher Hermann.
According toDeadline, however, NBC and Wolf Entertainment are moving away from this plan. Instead, they would bring ina brand-new character tentatively named Dom Pascalfor the role. He previously served in Miami, and is"described as a cheerful person who works well under pressure, and whose leadership style differs from Boden’s.“Casting is currently underway.
What Boden’s New Firehouse 51 Replacement Means For Chicago Fire Season 13
Boded initially eyed Kelly Severide to inherit the role, but realizing that a big part of the job is counseling made him re-evaluate. Thischanged Boden’s mind and resulted in him choosing Hermannover the obvious choice. In any case, it doesn’t seem like Severide had any issues with it. TheChicago Fireseason 12 finale wasn’t able to fully dwell on this because of everything else that was happening, butHermann being their next house chief should have been a relief for Firehouse 51, considering how much they love him.
Firehouse 51 has seen its fair share of departures, but not having Boden at the top will be the most difficult transition that it has seen because of how great he was in the role.
