Big news has been revealed for Season 13 of Chicago P.D. following the recent exit of a major star. Last month, it was revealed that Toya Turner would not be returning as Kiana Cook in Season 13. Now, a replacement actress has been found.

Per Deadline, Arienne Mandi (The Night Agent) has just been cast as a series regular in Chicago P.D. Season 13, filling in the void left by Turner's departure. Mandi is playing the role of Naomi Kerr, described as a "former soldier and military contractor who is said to thrive in dangerous situations," as well as a "fearless outsider who keeps her cards close to the vest." However, it was also reported that this is tentative, as the character's name and other details could change.

The One Chicago franchise is a strange beast that's constantly in flux while simultaneously remaining as static and unchanged as you'd assume from a group of interconnected procedural dramas. NBC might cancel "Chicago Justice," a fan-favorite like Jesse Lee Soffer's Jay Halstead might leave "Chicago P.D.," and Scott Eastwood might depart the franchise before even truly establishing himself as part of it -- but all the while, the shows trudge on, with the first responders of the Windy City navigating their difficult jobs and personal lives.

Sometimes, the cast shake-ups the property has become known for are borne out of necessity when an actor wishes to leave- However, there are other times when a major character is simply written out of the series. Such was the case with Charlie Barnett's second-generation firefighter Peter Mills, who was a prominent part of the first three seasons of "Chicago Fire...

Quincy Tyler Bernstine has been cast in a series regular role in Liz Meriwether’s upcoming Hulu series, Variety has learned exclusively.

Bernstine joins previously announced cast members Emmy Rossum, Lola Petticrew, and Scott McNairy in the untitled show, which is loosely inspired by the 1987 movie “Black Widow.” The show was originally announced in March.

The official logline for the show states, “An FBI agent (Rossum) uses the secrets from a female serial killer’s (Petticrew) past to try and find her.” Bernstine will star as Nora, described as “a veteran FBI agent working alongside Alice (Rossum) in the department who has worked on hundreds of homicides and human trafficking cases.”

Bernstine received a Tony Award nomination in 2024 for her role in “Doubt.” Her onscreen credits include shows like “And Just Like That,” “Julia,” “Power,” and “Power Book II: Ghost.” She will next be seen in the Peacock limited series...

Jesse Lee Soffer joined FBI: International in its fourth season, which would also turn out to be the show's last. He played Wesley Mitchell, the Fly Team's new leader, following the previous leader's departure. FBI: International aired its series finale on Tuesday, May 20, marking the end for the second scripted spin-off in Dick Wolf's FBI universe. The show's ending was an emotional affair for the cast members, many of whom have been on it since its inception. It was no less emotional for Lee Soffer, who brought fresh energy to the show's last outing. FBI: International allowed him to travel all over Eurasia playing Wes, giving him a whirlwind of a time. "What a year," the actor said in his farewell message on his Instagram account after the show's conclusion. He shared photos from filming episodes of the show with the caption below:

"What a year. What a journey.

Eva-Jane Willis and Jesse Lee Soffer are going undercover on tonight's high-stakes episode of FBI: International Season 4. As the show draws closer to its series finale, Smitty and Mitchell are targeting a suspected American arms dealer with a long list of crimes and an arsenal of stolen weapons. Fly Team sends them to infiltrate his operation while he's in Vienna with the goods, and, for Smitty, at least, things are about to get messy. Collider can exclusively share a new sneak peek at the upcoming Episode 19, titled "Flinch Now and It's Over," that sees her having a few drinks with a real charmer, though she's not looking for love.

He continues, "The final minutes of the hour will have some big shocks with lasting ripple effects." MacDonald concluded his statement with, "It's going to be a very long summer for Chicago Med fans!"

Chicago Med star Luke Mitchell recently revealed how he'd like one of the show's former stars to return. The two previously worked together on a short-lived television series.

Speaking with Cbr, Mitchell spoke about Ato Essandoh, the actor who portrayed Dr. Isidore Latham as a series regular in Seasons 2-5 of NBC's hit medical drama from Dick Wolf. Essandoh returned in Season 6 as a guest star, but hasn't shared any scenes with Mitchell, who joined the cast in Season 9. "He's got a headshot on one of the sets -- a framed headshot of his character -- and I've taken a selfie in front of it and sent it to him," Mitchell said of Essandoh. "I love Ato. I'd love for him to come back, but I think the guy is just, he's too good of an actor. He's always working. He's booked out."

CBS is cutting the ranks of its FBI agents.

The network has canceled FBI: Most Wanted and FBI: International. The two shows will end their runs in the spring after six and four seasons, respectively. The flagship series, which is in the midst of a multiseason order taking it through the 2026-27 season, will remain at CBS.

Another entry in the franchise, which would focus on CIA operatives and is tentatively titled FBI: CIA, is in development at CBS. The potential show is set to be introduced as a back-door pilot in an episode of FBI later this season.

The cancellations come as something of a surprise, even though neither series was part of a sizable renewal announcement CBS made in February. Both International and Most Wanted continue to put up decent ratings for CBS. Though neither brings in as large an audience as the flagship series, they rank among...

"Prison Break" was one of the most popular shows of the early 00s, and recently got a second life thanks to streaming. It's a show that — like "24" and "Lost" — helped popularize serialized narratives in network TV. Instead of standalone episodes that made it easy for casual viewers to dip in and out, "Prison Break" told an ongoing story where every episode directly built up to the next one. This forced viewers to keep tuning in every single week expecting actual resolutions to the story.

The show follows two brothers, Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell) and Michael Scofield (Wentworth Miller), whose lives are upended after Lincoln is wrongfully accused of murdering the vice president's brother. When Lincoln is quickly sentenced to death and incarcerated in a high security prison, Michael takes it upon himself to commit armed robbery to get sentenced to the same prison as his brother. It's not just because he misses him,...

The “Prison Break” reboot in development is one step closer to freedom, landing a pilot order from Hulu.

Law & Order: Organized Crime season 5 must accomplish several changes to fix serious problems that are making the series more difficult to enjoy. The Christopher Meloni-led spinoff of Law & Order: Svu originally focused on Meloni's Elliot Stabler returning to New York and joining the Organized Crime Bureau so he could solve the murder of his wife. Since then, there have been frequent Law & Order: Organized Crime showrunner changes, leading to the series repeatedly reinventing itself.

Although Stabler is a big draw, Organized Crime has long struggled to achieve the large, passionate audience that the other shows in the franchise enjoy. Organized Crime season 5 will air on Peacock, which is meant to solve that problem. However, it is difficult to tell whether the move to Peacock will work, given continued production shake-ups and the lack of a confirmed release date halfway through the 2024-25 television season.

Law & Order: Organized Crime premiered in April 2021 with the highly anticipated return of Christopher Meloni’s Detective Elliot Stabler, but a big change before season 5 puts the future of the show in question. The former partner of Olivia Benson during the first twelve seasons of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit returned to New York to investigate the murder of his wife as he joined the Organized Crime task force. The series also explores Stabler’s relationship with his family, including his mother and children.

Organized Crime sets itself apart from other Law & Order shows, including the original and Svu, by focusing more on Stabler’s personal life. The multi-episode cases also give the series the cinematic feel of an action crime drama epic. Law & Order: Organized Crime will return for season 5, but this time on Peacock due to low ratings on NBC last season but stronger viewership on streaming.

The popular drama “Law & Order: Organized Crime” enters its fifth season, navigating another key leadership shift and preparing for a major network changeover.

John Shiban has stepped down as showrunner, marking the show’s sixth leadership change since its premiere in 2021. The original showrunner, Matt Olmstead, has stepped in to provide stability during this shift.

The series’ relocation from NBC to Peacock is the most noticeable shift, which may provide fresh storytelling chances. Despite these limitations, the show stays devoted to its character-driven narrative approach.

Law & Order: Organized Crime season 5 continues to progress despite the exit of its most recent showrunner. The Law & Order: Svu spinoff, starring Christopher Meloni as Detective Elliot Stabler, follows the veteran cop's return to the NYPD as part of the Organized Crime Task Force. The series is known for its darker, serialized storytelling, distinguishing itself from the broader Law & Order franchise. While the show has undergone several showrunner changes since its 2021 debut, Law & Order: Organized Crime season 5 is being developed for Peacock, marking a transition from its previous home on NBC.

According to Deadline, production on Law & Order: Organized Crime's fifth season is halfway complete, though the series currently lacks a showrunner. Recent seasons have been led by a string of showrunners such as Barry OBrien and Sean Jablonski, with David Graziano overseeing various episodes. Most recently, Ozark veteran John Shiban guided the show through its fourth season.

Law & Order: Organized Crime has lost yet another showrunner. John Shiban, who had been tapped to helm the fourth season of the NBC spin-off series after the WGA strike, is now the fifth showrunner to depart the series since it began development. Currently, nobody has been named to take his place when Season 5 picks up on Peacock, though the series will welcome back original helmer Matt Olmstead as an executive producer to help with the remaining scripts. Production was briefly paused as sources say Shiban stepped down last month, but now cameras are rolling again. According to Deadline, production is about halfway through its 10-episode order and most of the scripts are complete.

In a Law & Order: Organized Crime shake-up, John Shiban has become the fifth showrunner to leave the series over the past four years. According to sources, his exit happened earlier this month, leading to a production pause. The Wolf Entertainment/Universal TV drama, which is moving to Peacock for its upcoming fifth season, is now back filming, with its original showrunner, Matt Olmstead, stepping in as executive producer. He remains executive producer/showrunner on another Wolf Entertainment/Utv drama, CBS’ FBI: International.

No new showrunner of Organized Crime has been named. Olmstead has been drafted back to help with the remaining scripts. Most Season 5 scripts have been written, with production on the 10-episode installment about halfway through, I hear.

Olmstead stepped down as showrunner of Organized Crime before the Law & Order spinoff, which had received a straight-to-series order, had started production on its first season. He was succeeded by Ilene Chaiken,...

Law & Order: Organized Crime and its showrunner have parted ways. Yes, again.

In the days of high-concept television, Fox had its own answer to shows like ABC's philosophical mystery show, Lost. In 2005, the network aired Prison Break, a series that would go on to originally have four seasons. Starring Wentworth Miller and Dominic Purcell, the series follows structural engineer Michael (Miller), who purposefully goes to prison so he can break his brother Lincoln (Purcell) out before he is executed for a crime he didn't commit. While this series may have been better implemented as a feature film, the series changed up the seasons every year and included a revolving cast of interesting characters.

Season 2 introduces FBI Agent Alexander Mahone, played by the incomparable William Fichtner, who would stay throughout the entirety of the series. But when Prison Break was revitalized for Season 5 in 2017, the fascinating character was nowhere to be found. Mahone left a gaping hole where his integral character once was.

Olivia Thirlby has joined the cast of “Law & Order: Organized Crime” Season 5, Variety has learned exclusively from sources.

Thirlby will appear in a recurring role in the new season of the series, though exact details of her character are being kept under wraps. It was previously announced that “Law & Order: Organized Crime” would be moving from NBC to Peacock for its fifth season.

Reps for NBCUniversal declined to comment.

Thirlby has primarily worked in film during her career, recently starring in Christopher Nolan’s Oscar-winning feature “Oppenheimer” in the role of Dr. Lilli Hornig. She has also starred in films like “Dumb Money,” “The Stanford Prison Experiment,” “Dredd,” “The Wackness,” and “Juno.” In television, she most recently starred in the FX series adaptation of “Y: The Last Man” and is known for other shows such as “Goliath,” “The L Word: Generation Q,” and “Bored to Death.”

Warning: Contains Spoilers for the FBI: International season 4 premiere.

Following the exit of Luke Kleintank's Scott Forrester, FBI: International has a new Fly Team leader. Jesse Lee Soffer, formerly known for playing Jay Halstead in Chicago P.D., returns to the Dick Wolf universe as Supervisory Special Agent Wes Mitchell. The premiere is titled "A Leader, Not a Tourist" and sees Wes work alongside the team after his partner, Mike, is shot in the field. While new to the series, Soffer's character served as Vo's training agent, creating a pre-established connection between the characters.

Mike succumbs to his injuries in the hospital, which further motivates Wes to find his killer and bring him to justice. Soffer shares that the heartbreaking death catches his character off-guard in season 4, pushing Wes to accept the Fly Team position and throw himself into the new job. Despite the loss of several significant relationships,...

The following contains major spoilers from FBI: International Season 4, Episode 1, "A Leader, Not a Tourist," which debuted Tuesday, Oct. 15 on CBS.

The FBI: International Season 4 premiere welcomes Jesse Lee Soffer to the game -- and it also looks to completely change the flavor of the first FBI spinoff. Soffer and showrunner Matt Olmstead combine for an episode that takes the Fly Team in a direction that it might not have gone with Luke Kleintank's Scott Forrester in charge. Of course, that's the point of bringing in a new leader, but how excited fans are about this change of pace may vary.

"A Leader, Not a Tourist" is mostly about Soffer's character Wesley "Wes" Mitchell, a Los Angeles Police Department veteran turned FBI agent who travels to Budapest on the trail of a foreign-based robbery crew. The episode reveals Wes's past with Fly Team member Cameron Vo, and explores both...

Jesse Lee Soffer will be joining the cast of FBI: International when the series premieres its fourth season. The former Chicago P.D. star recently opened up about his role as Supervisory Special Agent Wesley Mitchell in the CBS procedural.

"There's so much action, the first episode is great," Soffer told Deadline ahead of the Season 4 premiere. "When [writer Matt Olmstead] and I first started talking about doing this, we discussed who this character was going to be. I love Matt's writing, which was one of the biggest draws for me to do this. He delivered. That first episode was so much fun, and it felt like a pilot."

Chicago P.D. fans knew Jesse Lee Soffer as Jay Halstead for the first ten seasons of the law enforcement drama. He exited the show in the tenth season as his character left the unit and the country. However, Lee Soffer will pop up in another show by Chicago P.D. producer Dick Wolf. The move seems almost lateral, even though his new character is a boss for FBI: International's Fly Team. The actor talked to Screen Rant about why he decided to take the new role. He revealed the opportunity was too good to pass up, since he had worked with Wolf and FBI: International's showrunner Matt Olmstead before. Olmstead served as the showrunner for Chicago P.D. for five seasons. Lee Soffer talked about the new role, saying,...
