Chicago Med is on the verge of reaching a primetime milestone in the 2025 TV schedule that few shows ever hit: the 200th episode. Nick Gehlfuss is returning as former leading man Will Halstead for the occasion, and the episode should be a treat for longtime fans as well as anybody more invested in the plots introduced in the Season 11 premiere last week. Gehlfuss spoke with CinemaBlend about the big episode, including the parallels to Connor from way back when and Will's relationship with Owen.
The 200th episode is called "A Game of Inches," and while the logline from NBC doesn't specifically mention Will, the episode description previews a patient that "throws the hospital into chaos." How could Will Halstead come back to Gaffney if not with a bit of chaos? As it turns out, it's no coincidence that Nick Gehlfuss' first return to Med since he got his happy ending with Natalie will be in the 200th episode.
