Who's Hot and Who's Not: The Chicago Fire Cast
A Blaze of Talent
So, you're wondering who all those hunky, brave, and occasionally emotionally complex people are on Chicago Fire? Well, buckle up, because we're about to dive into the fiery world of Firehouse 51.
Let's start with the obvious: the guys. We've got Taylor Kinney as Lieutenant Kelly Severide, the resident heartthrob who can extinguish a fire and your heart with equal efficiency. Then there's Jesse Spencer, who played Captain Matt Casey until he decided to trade in his helmet for a parenting manual. Let's not forget Joe Minoso, the lovable Joe Cruz, who brings the comic relief (and some serious firefighting skills) to the show.
On the female front, we have the badass Miranda Rae Mayo as Stella Kidd, who can handle a hose and a power drill like nobody's business. Kara Killmer plays the compassionate Sylvie Brett, who's basically the team therapist with excellent CPR skills. And let's not overlook Monica Raymund, who brought the fiery Gabriela Dawson to life before hanging up her helmet.
Behind the Scenes Heroes
While these folks are the faces of the show, there's a whole crew of talented actors playing supporting roles. Eamonn Walker as Chief Wallace Boden is the steady hand guiding the ship. Christian Stolte as Mouch is the wise old head with a penchant for gambling. And David Eigenberg as Christopher Herrmann is the lovable, beer-loving family man.
