‘Chicago Fire' season 6 premiere spoilers: One cast member departing; Severide alive

The previous season of “Chicago Fire” left fans with a mystery. However, thanks to some leads in social media, an insight can be gained to know who survived the tragic event.

Viewers might remember that in the finale of the previous season, Severide (Taylor Kinney) and Jason (Kamal Angelo Bolden) entered a burning warehouse to rescue those trapped inside. Unfortunately, they themselves ended up trapped. Things got from worse to worst when Mouch (Christian Stolte) suffered a heart attack on the floor. Herrmann (David Eidenberg) was also trapped with while Matt Casey (Jesse Spencer).

Spoiler alert! This article contains “Chicago Fire” spoilers. Read on if you would like to know what happens next before the next episode airs.

Things looked pretty rough, but thanks to social media, fans can reasonably infer that Herrmann is safe. Eidenberg, who plays Herrmann, was tagged in an Instagram post by Yuriy Sardarov, who plays Otis. Eidenberg has been spotted several times on Miranda Rae Mayo’s Instagram stories as well. This means he is safe and sound, despite his apparently hopeless situation.

Hollywood Life reports that a fan shared set photos with no other than Taylor Kinney. It is surprising that Kinney, whose character was in danger, would even pose for a photo. However, he is one of the show’s main characters, so nobody would think he would get killed off anyway. Unfortunately, it looks like someone will die as Yuriy shared a photo of himself in what looked like an outfit for a funeral.

Even showrunner Derek Haas confirmed to THR that there will be at least one cast departure this coming season. Haas said that viewers are going to get answers they have been looking for.

“Chicago Fire” returns for season 6 on September 28 on NBC. In Australia, it will air on FOX8.
