Chicago P.D. Season 13 Finale: Voight’s Violent Confrontation and Imani’s Bond The Season 13 finale of Chicago P.D. delivered a visceral and emotionally charged conclusion to the Intelligence Unit’s mission, centered on Sergeant Hank Voight’s (Jason Beghe) violent showdown with human trafficker Russ Kirby. The episode, titled “Born or Made,” culminated in a brutal confrontation that forced Voight to confront his innate aggression and the ease with which he reverts to violence. The scene, which saw Voight brutally kill Kirby, was described by showrunner Gwen Sigan as a pivotal moment in exploring Voight’s complex relationship with violence. Voight’s actions were driven by his deep bond with Officer Eva Imani (Arienne Mandi), a recruit whose determination and resilience mirrored his own. Imani’s quest to reunite with her kidnapped sister, Shari, had brought her into close contact with Voight, who offered his support after learning of her search. Together, they tracked down Shari, only to discover that Kirby had evaded capture. As Imani worked to reconnect with Shari, who had been brainwashed into believing she was a different person, Voight orchestrated a plan to eliminate Kirby. The climax unfolded when Imani was lured into a trap by Kirby, forcing the Intelligence Unit to rush to her aid. Upon arriving, Voight confronted Kirby, who had armed himself. In a moment of unfiltered rage, Voight slammed Kirby into a door, disarming him, and then repeatedly struck him on the head until he died. The scene ended with Burgess (Marina Squerciati) pulling Voight away before he could make eye contact with Imani, who seemed to fully understand his actions. Sigan emphasized that the finale was designed to highlight the duality of Voight’s character.#chicago_pd #hank_voight #eva_imani #gwen_sigan #russ_kirby
Which Chicago Fire, PD and Med Characters Are Leaving? The renewal of Chicago Fire, Chicago P.D., and Chicago Med has sparked speculation about which characters may not return for the upcoming seasons. Over the past few years, the trio of One Chicago shows have seen several departures, including key figures like Boden, Carver, and Ritter from Fire; Upton and Kiana Cook from P.D.; and Maggie and Will Halstead from Med. Some exits were due to budget cuts, while others were driven by actors’ personal choices. As the series move into new seasons, fans are now focusing on potential cast changes and plot-driven exits. Below are five characters whose futures remain uncertain. Dr. Daniel Charles, portrayed by Oliver Platt, is among the most likely to leave Chicago Med. The psychiatrist’s departure has been hinted at throughout the season, with his struggles and panic attacks escalating to a critical point. In a recent episode, Charles collapsed from a stroke, raising questions about his fate. While his exit was initially framed as a retirement, the show’s direction suggests he may face a more dramatic end before the season concludes. Dom Pascal, played by Dermot Mulroney, has already left Chicago Fire after being fired from Firehouse 51 for misconduct. His character’s absence during the latter half of the season further complicates his return. Although Mulroney hinted at a potential comeback, the uncertainty surrounding his future makes it unlikely he will return to 51. The firehouse has already been replaced by Battalion Chief Hopkins, leaving Pascal’s fate unresolved. Kevin Atwater, portrayed by LaRoyce Hawkins, remains a beloved figure on Chicago P.D., but his storyline introduces new complications. Atwater is set to become a father to Tasha Fox, who currently resides in Miami.#chicago_fire #chicago_pd #chicago_med #oliver_platt #dermot_mulroney
