“Chicago Fire” New Season Cast Call for Extras – Chicago

NBC’s “Chicago Fire” is in production of the new 2025 season

The show’s casting directors are now booking talent to work as paid background actors on “Chicago Fire“.

“Chicago Fire” is produced by Emmy Award-winning executive producer Dick Wolf, the same man that is behind the very popular “Law and Order” franchise. “Chicago Fire” is now filming the new season in …. you guessed it, the Chicago area.  The show follows the lives of the men and women who work at the fictional firehouse 51. The high octane drama gives viewers a glimpse into the lives of firefighters, paramedics and rescue workers who put their lives on the line on a daily basis. The successful show launched a spin-off  called “Chicago P.D.“  many years back followed by another spin-off  “Chicago Med.”
