Production

Changes

Archie Kao's character Detective Sheldon Jin was killed in the first season's finale, thus his character will not be appearing in the second season of the show.[26] However, showrunner Matt Olmstead revealed that "It [Jin's death] shakes everybody up...definitely for the next three or four episodes until people can re-galvanize as a family, but people have some hard feelings about how it all goes down."[27]

Officer Kim Burgess will be joined by a new partner, whom Olmstead describes as being an important voice to the team in the second season and particularly for Burgess.[27] Brian Geraghty was later announced to be portraying Sean Roman, the new partner of Kim Burgess (Marina Squerciati).[28]

Jesse Lee Soffer revealed that there will be a lot more crossovers this season between Chicago P.D. and parent show Chicago Fire; "I think every episode from now on, they're going to have a couple characters from one show on the other" he told media sources.[29]
