Rome Flynn is joining NBC’s Chicago Fire.
The former How to Get Away with Murder star will debut in a recurring guest role on Jan. 24 for the second episode of Season 12, as Deadline exclusively reports.
Flynn will play Jake Gibson, a confident yet reserved former amateur boxer with a troubled past. After performing an act of heroism, he becomes of interest to the Truck 51 due to his bravery and physicality.
The news of Flynn’s casting comes after it was revealed that Alberto Rosende and Kara Killmer will exit the series and will make their final appearances in Season 12.
Flynn has also recently starred in Paramount+’s sports comedy film Fantasy Football and With Love on Prime Video.
Chicago Fire returns on Jan. 17 on NBC.
