Jesse Spencer has left ‘Chicago Fire.’ But the actor has hinted that he could return to play
Matt Casey again in a future episode. Jesse Spencer has left Chicago Fire. But he might not be
gone for good. Though the actor who has played Matt Casey on the NBC drama for 10 seasons
has decided to step away from the show, he’s hinted there’s a chance he could someday return to Firehouse 51. Matt Casey left ‘Chicago Fire’ in the show’s 200th episode Casey’s Chicago Fire exit came in the show’s landmark 200th episode when he decided to move to Oregon to care for his late friend Andy Darden’s two sons. While the move made perfect sense for the character — who has always wanted to be a father — it meant saying goodbye to his colleagues at the firehouse. Casey’s decision to leave the Windy City also meant a painful parting from Sylvie Brett (Kara Killmer). The two had only recently made their relationship official.
While Casey and Brett — or “Brettsey” as fans dubbed them — are still together, only time will tell if they are able to make the long-distance relationship work. Jesse Spencer says he could return to the One Chicago show Casey’s commitment to caring for Andy’s kids means he’ll be away from Chicago for at least three years. But both Spencer and Chicago Fire showrunner Derek Haas have hinted that fans may not have seen (or heard) the last of the character. For one, his voice will be featured in an upcoming episode, TVLine reported. And future appearances aren’t out of the question. “This is a three-year commitment that Casey is making, but hopefully, we’ll see him before those three years are done,” Haas told TVLine. Spencer confirmed that he and Haas have been talking about whether Casey will return to Chicago Fire. “And there’s always a chance I’ll come back, too.
We’re still toying with the ‘Will Casey come back?’ That’s a possibility, you know. Derek and I talked about that and it’s a possibility for me too,” the actor told Deadline.
