As the firefighters, rescue squad and paramedics of Chicago Firehouse 51 forge headfirst into danger, the choices they make can mean the difference between life and death. But from the relentless pressure of saving lives, an extended family is forged. Led by Chief Wallace Boden, Matthew Casey, Kelly Severide, and the others know — when it’s go time, Firehouse 51 lays it all on the line for each other.

    I would love to be an extra in Chicago Fire or PD, would you consider someone from out of state? I live in Montana, I’m sure this is a problem. I’m a huge fan of both shows. I’m a certified nurse assistant.

    I would love to be an extra on CPD or Chicago Fire . I have no experience in acting at all. I also live in NJ problem I’m sure. But I’ve been a huge fan since the show started. Absolutely love them. Is there any way you would consider a out of state person. I am retired and have nothing but free time. I am about 4 months from turning 60 but look younger. Please consider for one of your best fans.

      They only cast certain roles as needed. Yes, but wait until they are in need of roles with the description that fits you.

Boden doesn’t get enough home live as the rest of the cast. Boden never looks relaxed or happy and me as a Love interest to Boden I could bring some ex city into his live for a few months then he proposes marriage and that’s when he finds out my real age and I’m actually dying with only six months to live the vast church wedding take place and we leave for honeymoon and the plane crashes and I was severely injured for three more days doctors say I’m recovering well Boden is so happy then he goes to tell serviride and Casey that I’m recovering and will be home in several days. While Boden is at the firehouse I dies but Boden misses the call because he’s fighting fires Boden goes to hospital to see me but I died and they already taken me to the morgue Biden insisted that he sees her. He has a full BREAKDOWN in the morgue till the doctors sedate him then they find out that he has had a heart attack for grieving over me…the team rally around him handling my funeral for him while he sits in a weak chair But with his strength and love and wording over the hose. From his hospital bed he still Swears To protect the house. After a weak he returns to work t his rightful place.
