Where Is He?! Mouch’s Chicago Fire Future Revealed as a Fourth Character

Says Goodbye This Season Chicago Fire is NBC’s drama series following the personal

and professional lives of firefighters and paramedics at the Chicago Fire Department’s

fictional Firehouse 51 in Chicago, Illinois. The series — which was created by Dick Wolf, the same mind behind the Law & Order and FBI franchises — is the first of NBC’s One Chicago franchise, which also includes Chicago P.D., Chicago Med, and the since-cancelled Chicago Justice. Randall “Mouch” McHolland, a senior firefighter on Truck 81, is one of five original characters still left on Chicago Fire, along with Chief Wallace Boden (Eamonn Walker); Lieutenant Kelly Severide (Taylor Kinney); Joe Cruz (Joe Minoso); and Christopher Herrmann (David Eigenberg.)

However, with three cast member exits already in Chicago Fire Season 12 (and another planned to happen soon), fans can’t help but wonder whether Mouch’s days as an OG of Firehouse 51 could be over — especially after he’s been missing for the final episodes of Season 12. So what happened to Mouch on Chicago Fire and where is he? Read on for what we know about Mouch’s future on Chicago Fire ahead. What happened to Mouch on Chicago Fire? While Stolte seems to be staying on Chicago Fire, the same can’t be said for at least one of his cast mates.

News broke on May 7, 2024, that Eamonn Walker, who has played Chief Wallace Boden since Chicago Fire Season 12, was leaving the show as a series regular after 12 seasons. Boden — who has also been missing from a few episodes of Chicago Fire Season 12 — will leave in the Season 12 finale, which will reveal the result of his campaign to be the Chicago Fire Department’s new Deputy Commissioner. While Walker is leaving the series as a series regular, he won’t be gone for good. Deadline confirmed that Walker will remain on Chicago Fire in a recurring capacity. Walker is the fourth Chicago Fire cast member to leave in Season 12, along with Kara Killmer (Sylvie Brett); Alberto Rosende (Blake Gallo); and Rome Flynn (Derrick Gibson.)
