Dick Wolf Reminded Two Chicago PD Cast Members They Could Be Killed Off Anytime – Looper

While Intel Unit Officers Kim Burgess (Marina Squerciati) and Adam Ruzek (Patrick John Flueger) have both been busting bad guys on “Chicago P.D.” since the premiere episode “Stepping Stone” back in 2014, that’s apparently no reason for them to be complacent about enduring on the show. As revealed during an appearance on NBC’s “Lie Detector Test” (which employs a bogus lie detector device and operator) the two stars cited an interlude with producer Dick Wolf that seems to indicate their careers as Chi-Town first responders could be terminated at the drop of a hat.

In the session, Flueger asks Squerciati if she thinks her character will make it to the final episode of “Chicago P.D.” Laughing, she confidently replies, “Yes!” This prompts Flueger to say, “When Dick Wolf said ‘I can kill you at any time’ the first time we ever had dinner with [him], did that make you nervous?” At which point the actress admits, “It did.”

But do these two central players really need to worry about being written into oblivion on “Chicago P.D.”? Well, you should ask former significant “Chicago P.D.” characters Nadia Decotis, Justin Voight, Gregory Yates, Lexi Olinsky, Blair Williams, Brian Kelton, and Anna Avalos. Their status? Let’s just say they’re keeping Alivin Olinsky company on that Big Cop Drama in the Sky.
