Chicago Fire Season 12 Adds New Paramedic Following Kara Killmer's Exit

This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available.

Summary Chicago Fire has hired its latest replacement for departing paramedic Sylvie Brett (Kara Killmer).

Jocelyn Hudon will join as a new paramedic in a recurring role with the potential to become a series regular in season 13.

Jocelyn Hudon is known for her roles in Hallmark movies and other television titles including The Strain.

Chicago Fire's newest Sylvie Brett replacement has joined the cast. The show, which is the flagship program of the NBC network's interlinked One Chicago franchise, follows the employees of the fictional Firehouse 51 in the Chicago Fire Department. One of the firehouse's key personnel was paramedic Sylvie Brett (Kara Killmer), who has been part of the show since she joined the team at Ambulance 61 in season 3. However, Killmer has left the show midway through the ongoing season 12 after playing the role for 199 episodes, which led to Brett's in-universe wedding and departure from the team.

Per Deadline, the show is adding a brand-new replacement for Sylvie Brett. Jocelyn Hudon is set to join the cast in an as-yet-unnamed role as a new paramedic who will be arriving during season 12, which still has five episodes left in its truncated post-strike run. She will be brought on in a recurring capacity with an option to be upgraded to a series regular in Chicago Fire season 13, which has already been officially renewed.
