Antes del regreso de Will Halstead a Chicago Med, el showrunner abrió sobre “personajes OG que regresan” y el episodio 200

by

La anticipación para el regreso de los miércoles One Chicago de NBC en la temporada de televisión de otoño 2025 casi ha terminado, y Chicago Med será el primer programa. Afortunadamente, el showrunner Allen MacDonald confirmó rápidamente cuándo los fanáticos aprenderán lo que sucede después del cliffhanger del final de la temporada 10, con Hannah llamando a la puerta de Archer, pero el estreno de la temporada 11 no es el único episodio que genera emoción desde el principio.

El drama médico alcanzará un episodio 200 significativo a principios de la nueva temporada, y MacDonald compartió una vista previa de lo que los espectadores pueden esperar. Esto incluye el regreso de dr. Will Halstead .

El episodio 200 de Chicago Med

El popular drama médico de la franquicia One Chicago celebrará un hito con su episodio 200 que se transmitirá el miércoles 8 de octubre a las 8 p.m. Hora del este en NBC. Puede atraparlo durante el intervalo de tiempo del miércoles regular del programa, y ​​también estará disponible para transmitir al día siguiente con una suscripción de Peacock . El episodio, titulado “A Game of Inches”, es descrito por NBC de la siguiente manera:

Las tensiones se elevan cuando Ripley y Archer no están de acuerdo sobre cómo cuidar a un paciente con un caso complejo. Mientras tanto, Asher descubre algo inesperado mientras trabaja con una pareja que espera un bebé. En otra parte del hospital, las acciones de un paciente causan una interrupción significativa.

Aunque no se anunció inicialmente, este episodio marcará la primera aparición de Nick Gehlfuss en Chicago Med desde que su personaje, Will, tuvo una resolución positiva en el final de la temporada 8. Allen MacDonald compartió anteriormente con TopMob en la primavera que el equipo Med tenía “planes” para el episodio 200, pero todavía estaban finalizando los detalles. Ahora, a medida que se acerca el estreno de la temporada 11, parece que esos planes implican recuperar a Nick Gehlfuss antes de comenzar su papel de actor principal en una nueva serie de crímenes.

Similar a Jesse Lee Soffer, quien interpretó al ex hermano en pantalla de Gehlfuss y luego se mudó a FBI: International , el Med actor también se une a CBS para asumir una nueva parte dentro del universo de Dick Wolf, esta vez en cia .

Lo que nos contó el showrunner sobre el regreso de Will

Durante el reciente evento de One Chicago Press de NBC, Showrunner Allen MacDonald discutió las próximas historias para Gaffney Med este otoño con topmob y otros medios. La mayor actualización de casting, aparte de la desviación de Marlyne Barrett del papel de Maggie, es el regreso de Nick Gehlfuss. MacDonald compartió una vista previa de lo que los espectadores pueden anticipar cuándo reaparecerá Halstead en Chicago este otoño:

Cuando comencé este trabajo, volví a ver todos los episodios anteriores y rápidamente me convertí en fanático del Dr. Will Halstead. Era un personaje que estaba decidido a traer de vuelta, y después de un esfuerzo, hemos logrado hacer exactamente eso. Aparecerá por más de un solo episodio. Regresa a Gaffney para reconectarse con viejos amigos, específicamente Owen, y eso es todo lo que puedo compartir en este momento. Además de eso, lo verás primero en el episodio 200, y esta no será su última aparición esta temporada.

La temporada 10 marcó el debut de Allen MacDonald con el elenco Chicago Med , y compartió conmigo el otoño pasado que su preparación principal implicó “ver los 176 episodios anteriores”. Explicó que su pasión de larga data por los espectáculos médicos de regreso a clásicos como st. En otros lugares y er , que ambos se emitieron originalmente en NBC antes de que comenzara la serie One Chicago, informó su enfoque.

When I inquired this autumn if he had any major plans for the 200th episode, he revisited his original ideas:

I wanted to increase the drama and scale of things a bit. I’m a big fan of shows like St. Elsewhere and ER-I’ve watched most of those series from start to finish. I remember rushing to get the TV Guide at the supermarket to find out what would happen on St. Elsewhere each week, and I was especially excited if it hinted at a returning character. Essentially, I was trying to fulfill the wish of my 14-year-old self-the one who loved seeing characters return on St. Elsewhere. I believe the fans really enjoy that kind of thing.

Season 10 featured the return of familiar faces from previous seasons, such as Rachel DiPillo as Dr. Sarah Reese and Mekia Cox (who now stars in The Rookie) as Robin Charles. Whether Nick Gehlfuss will be the sole former cast member to reappear in Season 11 is still unknown, but it seems fans can anticipate a pleasant trip down memory lane with Will’s return – and it won’t be a brief appearance. MacDonald continued by saying:

As a writer, it’s great to revisit the original characters and see how they’re doing. I especially enjoy watching these OG characters interact with the newer ones, such as Lenox and Frost. I’ll share a little hint: Frost is one of the first people Will encounters when he arrives at the hospital.

Because neither Frost nor Lenox had met Will before he moved to Seattle to start a new life with Natalie and Owen, I wonder if they’ll recognize him when he appears at the hospital. Whether they do might depend on the first person he meets. Thankfully, Luke Mitchell shared a behind-the-scenes photo showing at least two of the doctors Will will be interacting with:

Will and Archer worked on Med at the same time, meaning they’ve met before. This is different from Will and Ripley, who are meeting for the first time. I’m also hoping to see how Will reacts to the news of Hannah’s pregnancy, but we’ll have to wait until the Season 11 premiere to find out more. It’s unclear if the show will jump forward in time enough for Hannah to be visibly pregnant anytime soon; the actress wasn’t wearing a maternity costume in a behind-the-scenes clip.

Chicago Med’s Season 11 Premiere

The premiere of Season 11, titled “We All Fall Down,” immediately reveals why Hannah was at Archer’s door and identifies the father of her child. However, the official description from NBC doesn’t offer any major hints about Hannah’s pregnancy. Here’s what you can anticipate:

A family who survived a house fire is being transported to Gaffney for help. Lenox works hard to help two sisters who were hurt at an all-night rave that ended in disaster. Meanwhile, Goodwin and Abrams are disagreeing about some tough decisions regarding staff changes.

Although this doesn’t resolve the cliffhanger from the Season 10 finale, it will be compelling to see if Lenox handles her work in the Emergency Department differently following the shocking results of her prion disease test earlier this year. She demonstrated an ability to separate her personal life from her work in Season 10, but receiving such a significant diagnosis was undoubtedly a lot to take in.

A house fire storyline could potentially bring in a guest appearance from a cast member of Chicago Fire, but there are already many firefighters and paramedics featured in NBC’s shows set in Chicago, so it’s not essential to have the heroes from Firehouse 51 cross over to Med. I’m really looking forward to the possibility of seeing Goodwin and Abrams clash; the neurosurgeon is the type of strong-willed character I enjoy watching on TV, even if I wouldn’t want them as a colleague in real life.

Check out the One Chicago trailer for a peek at what’s to come on Med:

Don’t miss the Season 11 premiere of Chicago Med on NBC, Wednesday, October 1st at 8 p.m. Eastern. Following that, catch the Season 14 premiere of Chicago Fire at 9 p.m. ET, and the Season 13 premiere of Chicago P.D. at 10 p.m. ET. As always, you can stream all three new episodes the next day on Peacock.

The 200th episode of Med is coming up in just a week, and fans are wondering if Nick Gehlfuss returning as Will will be the only exciting thing about this special milestone. With young Owen also returning, it would be great to see a surprise appearance by Torrey DeVitto as Natalie. Med has surprised viewers with her returns before, without any advance notice!
