One Chicago is on the way back to NBC's Wednesday nights this fall in the 2024 TV schedule, but the big question about "Chicago P.D." for months has been who would join the Intelligence Unit to replace Upton, if anybody, after Tracy Spiridakos' exit in the Season 11 finale. Now, the latest on Season 12 is that a new series regular has been added to the cop drama, and it's an intriguing casting with a One Chicago alum returning... but not who I was expecting.
"Warrior Nun" actress Toya Turner has been cast as a new series regular for "Chicago P.D." in Season 12, according to TVLine, and she joins a cast consisting of Jason Beghe, LaRoyce Hawkins, Marina Squerciati, Patrick John Flueger, Amy Morton, and Benjamin Levy Aguilar. Turner will play a patrol officer by the name of Yara Page who loves the adrenaline of the CPD and doesn't shy away from chaos, which certainly could make her a good fit for the stresses of the Intelligence Unit.
