Chicago Fire fans saddened as Michael Bradway exits the series after two seasons as Jack Damon
'Chicago Fire' has confirmed yet another cast departure ahead of its fourteenth season. Michael Bradway, who portrayed Jack Damon, the younger half-brother of Kelly Severide (played by Taylor Kinney), will not be returning when the series resumes. The news, first reported by TVLine on Thursday, follows closely on the heels of the exits of Jake Lockett (Sam Carver) and Daniel Kyri (Darren Ritter), adding to a period of transition for Firehouse 51. Bradway joined the long-running NBC drama just two seasons ago but quickly became a familiar and well-liked presence among the ensemble cast. His departure will leave fans disappointed, particularly as Damon's storyline was still developing. However, Bradway has already lined up his next role. He will star as Charlie in 'Every Year After', an upcoming Prime Video adaptation of Carley Fortune's bestselling novel Every Summer After. Announcing the news on Instagram, Bradway wrote, 'Couldn't be more excited to be your Charlie (sic).' While there is no confirmed return planned, producers have reportedly left the door open for a potential comeback, depending on future scheduling. As 'Chicago Fire' prepares to launch Season 14 with notable changes, fans will be watching closely to see how the show adapts to the loss of several core characters.

'Chicago Fire' Loses Another Beloved Cast Member Ahead of Season 14
'Chicago Fire' Loses Another Beloved Cast Member Ahead of Season 14 originally appeared on Parade. Chicago Fire is facing another major casting shakeup just weeks after losing two other major players from Firehouse 51. TVLine revealed on Thursday, July 17, that semi-recent newcomer Michael Bradway, who starred as Kelly Severide's () little half-brother Jack Damon for the last two seasons, will not be returning for Season 14. Just before news broke, Bradway shared that he'd been cast in Prime Video's Every Year After, an adaptation of Carley Fortune's novel Every Summer After. "Couldn't be more excited to be your Charlie 🚤," he wrote on Instagram. Producers are reportedly on board to have him reprise his role if his schedule allows for it in the future, but fans are undeniably bummed by the news, especially in the wake of , who played Sam Carver, and Daniel Kyri, who played Darren Ritter, leaving as series regulars (though showrunner Andrea Newman alluded to Parade that that doesn't necessarily mean they won't be seen again). "Not liking the changes: he's out and he's in. I am late to the party but adding someone unknown to replace those not invited back makes me not want to attend," one more recent viewer admitted in the comments of the announcement, likely referring to Brandon Larracuente's addition to the cast amid the multiple exits. "I'd rather they keep who they have instead of adding new characters," someone else declared. "I like the current cast. Not sure what the point was of bringing in this half-brother for Severide, but oh well." "I'll miss him and the others leaving Chicago Fire. I really liked all 3," another mourned, with someone else agreeing, "I hate to know 3 regulars that we all really liked will not be returning! Shoot!" "Please get this show more stable characters!" they added, as another agreed that there is "too much turnover on shows now." "I will miss him," they affirmed. But, you can't please everyone, and one admitted, "To be fair, not gonna miss the guy."'Chicago Fire' Loses Another Beloved Cast Member Ahead of Season 14 first appeared on Parade on Jul 18, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jul 18, 2025, where it first appeared.
