The months are counting down until Chicago Fire returns to pay off on the tear-jerking Season 13 finale, following the news that Jake Lockett, Daniel Kyri, and Michael Bradway won't be returning as part of the cast. Lockett's exit as Carver was set up in the finale back in May, but there was no indication of how or why Kyri's Ritter would leave. Those details are still unavailable, but there's some very good news: Kyri has confirmed that he'll be returning for part of Season 14 when it arrives in fall of the 2025 TV schedule.
Read on for what we know so far and why I now have hope that One Chicago can truly deliver another one of those "big endings" that showrunner Andrea Newman promised for Ritter and Carver!
