Chicago Fire Exclusive: Lost Actress Tania Raymonde Joins Cop-Centric Spin-Off

Casting for NBC’s potential Chicago Fire spin-off is heating up.

TVLine has learned exclusively that Lost actress Tania Raymonde has been cast in the planted offshoot, which will revolve around the Windy City’s police department.

The new characters — including Raymonde’s officer, Nicole — will be introduced in Chicago Fire‘s May 15 Season 1 finale, which will serve as a pilot of sorts for the potential new series.

Executive producer Dick Wolf, who’s had past successes with franchise extensions (Law & Order, Law & Order: SVU, Law & Order: Criminal Intent) for the Peacock Net, will reportedly helm the spinoff with Chicago Fire creators/executive producers Derek Haas and Michael Brandt and executive producer Matt Olmstead.

It remains unclear which, if any, Chicago Fire cast members might jump ship to the police-focused series.
