I really feel very privileged as an actor to have a forged, a crew, and a manufacturing workplace step up and welcome you residence. That\u2019s what it was like, after which we went to work. And we went to work in the best way that we all the time work. We knew that there was a really particular episode.

In my case, it was all the time a deputy, a deputy chief, or any individual increased than the chief coming in. There\u2019s just one particular person above me, and that\u2019s the commissioner. I&#8217;m the Deputy Commissioner coming in to seek out out why a firefighter is left behind within the fireplace.

When you first met him, he had management of 5 fireplace homes, though you by no means noticed them, otherwise you might need seen one or two. Then, he went to Deputy District Chief, after which he had a complete district, and now he\u2019s received the entire Chicago Fire Department, so all of Chicago is beneath his wing. He is aware of the popularity he obtained for having a favourite with Firehouse 51, and he can\u2019t afford to have that as Deputy Commissioner. He\u2019s coming in to do his job and never get caught up on the truth that any individual\u2019s in hospital.
