Season 13 Cast The Chicago P.D. Season 13 cast blends familiar faces with fresh additions, though some departures have shaken things up. Returning Cast The core of the Intelligence Unit remains intact, led by: Jason Beghe as Sergeant Hank Voight, the morally complex leader whose controversial decisions, like orchestrating Deputy Chief Charlie Reid's murder in Season 12, will likely haunt him. Patrick John Flueger as Officer Adam Ruzek, now navigating life as a married man alongside Kim Burgess. Marina Squerciati as Detective Kim Burgess, balancing motherhood, her new marriage, and the demands of the job. LaRoyce Hawkins as Officer Kevin Atwater, whose potential promotion to detective could bring new depth to his community-focused arc. Benjamin Levy Aguilar as Officer Dante Torres, whose undercover work and emotional backstory add intensity to the team. Amy Morton as Desk Sergeant Trudy Platt, the no-nonsense backbone of the unit. New Addition Joining the cast is Arienne Mandi as Officer Naomi Kerr, a former soldier and military contractor who thrives in chaos. Known for roles in The Night Agent and The L Word: Generation Q , Mandi's character is described as a fearless outsider, bringing a dynamic edge to the Intelligence Unit. Her military background and 'loose cannon' vibe promise to shake up team dynamics. Chicago P.D. Season 13 Plot Chicago P.D. Season 13 picks up after the explosive Season 12 finale, 'Vows,' which saw Voight arrange Deputy Chief Reid's murder to protect his team, the reinstatement of the Intelligence Unit, and the long-awaited wedding of Ruzek and Burgess. While the show's case-of-the-week format keeps specific plots unpredictable, several threads are set to drive the narrative. Fallout from Reid's Death Voight's decision to orchestrate Reid's murder by Otero's son, Rennie, sets the stage for major consequences. ADA Chapman, aware of Voight's involvement, faces a moral dilemma about whether to act on her suspicions, potentially straining their relationship. This could lead to a power struggle as a new Deputy Chief steps in, with Internal Affairs still holding files Reid compiled against the team. Voight's gamble to expose Reid's corruption might clear Torres and Burgess of past charges, but it's a risky move that could backfire. Ruzek and Burgess's Marriage The 'Burzek' wedding, though brief in the Season 12 finale, marks a new chapter for Ruzek and Burgess. Season 13 will explore how their marriage impacts their professional lives, especially as they balance high-stakes police work with family life and raising Michaela. Showrunner Gwen Sigan noted the wedding was designed to feel authentic to their characters, set in a Canaryville church tied to Ruzek's childhood. Fans can expect emotional moments and potential tension as their personal and professional worlds collide. Atwater's Growth and Torres's Arc Kevin Atwater's possible promotion to detective could shift his role, bringing more focus to his community ties and potential conflicts from Season 12's 'Street Jesus' storyline. Meanwhile, Dante Torres's dangerous undercover assignments and emotional depth will continue to add intensity, with his reinstatement to active duty opening new storylines. Team Dynamics and New Challenges Showrunner Gwen Sigan emphasized a mix of character-specific stories and ensemble-driven episodes, balancing personal arcs with the gritty police work fans love. The addition of Naomi Kerr introduces fresh dynamics, potentially sparking conflict or camaraderie within the unit. The season may also feature crossovers with Chicago Fire and Chicago Med , enhancing the One Chicago universe's interconnected storytelling.
