Dermot Mulroney will exit “Chicago Fire” during its upcoming 15th season, Variety confirmed. The actor, who joined the NBC series during Season 13 in the role of Chief Dom Pascal, will conclude his character’s arc early in the new season.
The season premiere is scheduled for October 7 at 9 p.m. ET. Mulroney had taken a hiatus during Season 14 before returning for the season finale, which ended on a significant cliffhanger involving Pascal and other characters responding to an emergency call at a burning warehouse. The finale left the fates of several firefighters uncertain as the roof of the structure began to collapse.
Mulroney’s departure comes shortly after the announcement that Joe Miñoso, an original cast member who has portrayed firefighter Joe Cruz for 14 seasons, will also leave the show during Season 15. The new season will introduce other changes to the program, including a new showrunner, Victor Teran, taking over from Andrea Newman after 14 seasons of leadership. Additionally, “BMF” actor Da’Vinchi has been cast as a new firefighter joining Firehouse 51.
Mulroney’s career includes prominent roles in films such as “My Best Friend’s Wedding” and “The Wedding Date,” along with appearances in “August: Osage County.” He currently stars in the Netflix drama “The Hunting Wives.” “Chicago Fire” will return alongside its “One Chicago” companion series, with “Chicago Med” beginning Season 12 and “Chicago P.D.” starting Season 14.
