Deadline has exclusively revealed that Annie Ilonzeh, who was supposed to recur during Season 6, has joined the cast of the upcoming seventh season of NBC's Chicago Fire. Ilonzeh will play Emily Foster, a new paramedic of the Chicago Fire department.
Emily is an intelligent, easy-going and confident new paramedic. New to the Chicago Fire Department, but a quick and effective worker. She may have a chip on her shoulder from the previous bumps in the road, but she takes everything in stride. Ilonzeh was initially set as a recurring, but was upped to series regular after production began. She’ll first appear in the Season 7 premiere on September 26.
