Chicago Med Is Plotting The Return Of Original Cast Member(s) Next Season, EP Reveals — Who Should Come Back?

Chicago Med brought back two familiar faces this past season, and that could be just the beginning of the show's returnees.

"I intend to bring back another original cast member or two, like I did Sarah Reese, and that is in the works," showrunner Allen MacDonald tells TVLine.

So which long-gone doc or nurse could be coming home to Med? There are certainly many possibilities to pick from: Among the Season 1 stars who have departed the NBC drama over the years are Colin Donnell (Dr. Connor Rhodes), Nick Gehlfuss (Dr. Will Halstead), Torrey DeVitto (Dr. Natalie Manning), Brian Tee (Dr. Ethan Choi) and Yaya DaCosta (nurse April Sexton).

As MacDonald mentioned, original cast member Rachel DiPillo already reprised her role as psychiatrist Sarah Reese during the middle of Season 10, making a surprise appearance in two episodes and then popping back up again in the finale. The multi-episode arc resurfaced old issues and accusations between Sarah and Dr. Charles, before allowing the protégé and mentor to finally get some closure on their troubled relationship.

Dr. Charles got another blast from the past when Mekia Cox returned as his daughter Robin in the season's final two episodes after a long absence. Cox's character hadn't been seen in the Windy City in five seasons, after she appeared throughout Seasons 2-3, dating Dr. Rhodes until she left Chicago to focus on her health. Robin returned in Season 4 as her mother battled cancer, then appeared in a Season 5 episode for her mom's funeral.
