Every Casting Change Shaking Up the Fall 2024 TV Schedule

Fall TV is looking a little different with shows like Found, Chicago Fire and FBI: International going through casting shakeups.

The One Chicago franchise has been making headlines as several cast members across all three shows announced exits. Dick Wolf‘s Chicago universe started out with Chicago Fire, which premiered in 2012 and follows the emergency department doctors and nurses of the fictional Gaffney Chicago Medical Center. This is the fourth series set in Wolf’s Chicago universe, which also includes Chicago Justice, Chicago Med and Chicago P.D.

In addition to Dominic Rains not returning for season 10 of Chicago Med, the series faced another shakeup when showrunners Diane Frolov and Andy Schneider announced their departures. Allen MacDonald is now the showrunner starting with season 10.

NBC’s president of program planning Jeff Bader addressed the changes in June, telling TVLine, “Cast comes in, cast goes out. It’s interesting. Because every year there are cast changes, and every year someone asks the same question. But [those shows] just keep going on.”
