Headed into the first One Chicago crossover in five years, fans are particularly concerned about one character: Chicago P.D.‘s Trudy Platt (Amy Morton).
In the promo for the three-hour event, viewers were shaken after seeing a glimpse of an injured Platt. Her husband, Chicago Fire‘s Mouch (Christian Stolte), is then seen rushing to her side at the hospital. The clips were startling, especially considering that Platt usually takes a backseat during major Chicago P.D. storylines.
Though she won’t reveal the sergeant’s fate, P.D. showrunner Gwen Sigan has confirmed that Platt’s life does hang in the balance amidst the chaos of the building explosion that brings all three casts together.

“I would say it’s very emotional,” Sigan said. “It’s definitely high-stakes. [Fans will] have to watch to really find out what happens with her story. But I think it really galvanizes the team. She is someone that across all three shows, I think she’s pretty beloved. Especially with her relationship with Mouch and how often she’s on Chicago Fire. You see every character’s reaction. And it forms quite high stakes for the team to find these offenders at the end of the day.”
Chicago Med showrunner Allen Macdonald revealed that doctors Lenox (Sarah Ramos) and Ripley (Luke Mitchell) will be responsible for saving Platt.
“Her life is on the line, and they really have to work together to hopefully figure that out in time,” Macdonald said.
P.D.‘s Ruzek (Patrick John Flueger) and Fire’s Stella (Miranda Rae Mayo) will also make an unlikely pair when the two are trapped together as a result of the explosion. Sigan explains that it was “interesting” to see the two come together in such a high-stress situation, especially considering both are the better halves of beloved ships in the fandom: Stellaride and Burzek.

“Both of those characters felt like characters that could handle this much story being thrown at them,” she says. “…It’s really a pairing that we haven’t gotten to see a lot. It’s an interesting pairing, I think. The other piece that became crucial to the themes [of the crossover]: showing how our teams have these longstanding relationships they’re in with other characters from their shows.”
There have been rumors circulating about Trudy Platt, the beloved character on Chicago P.D., leaving the show. Fans are concerned about the fate of the tough and no-nonsense police sergeant, played by Amy Morton.
However, as of now, there is no official confirmation about Trudy Platt leaving Chicago P.D. The show’s producers and creators have not made any announcements regarding her future on the series.
It is worth noting that actors often come and go on long-running TV shows, so it is not uncommon for characters to leave at some point. But until there is concrete information from the show’s creators or the actress herself, we can only speculate about Trudy Platt’s future on Chicago P.D.
For now, fans of the show can continue to enjoy Amy Morton’s portrayal of Trudy Platt and hope that she will remain a staple on the series for seasons to come. Stay tuned for updates on this developing story.
