In November 2023, it was announced that Season 12 of Chicago Fire would be Killmer’s last. The reason for her departure was revealed recently. Killmer expressed that she felt her time as Sylvie had come to an end and is eager to explore new projects. She mentioned her gratitude for portraying a first responder and working with real firefighters and paramedics.
