Chicago Fireis once again through a major shakeup with the announcement that original cast member Joe Miñoso, who has played firefighter Joe Cruz since the first responder series premiered in 2012, will exit the series in Season 15.

Miñoso’s departure isn’t the only change for Season 15. As previously announced, the series will be helmed by a new showrunner, Victor Teran, who replaces Andrea Newman after 14 seasons.
“Working at Chicago Fire, with the absolute best cast and crew in the business, has been the highlight of my career,” Newman said in a statement. “Like so many others, I was inspired to get into TV writing because of Dick [Wolf], so what a thrill it’s been to work with him and the amazing Wolf team of Peter Jankowski, Rebecca McGill and Anastasia Puglisi. I’m so grateful to them, [former showrunner] Derek Haas and the NBC and Universal execs who have been so supportive of the show all along the way. After 14 years, you really do become a family and working with this group will always feel like home.”
