Jay and Will Halstead reunite in new One Chicago Instagram post
It’s nice to see current and former cast members still hanging out!
It’s been a rough couple years for the One Chicago faithful. In one sense, the shows have been as exciting and unpredictable as ever, but in another, fans have had to watch some of their favorite all time characters leave the Windy City behind. Some of these exits have been satisfying, and others not so much.
This split between satisfying and unsatisfying is perfectly exemplified by the Halstead brothers. While it was nice to see Chicago Med‘s Will Halstead (Nick Gehlfuss) ride off into the sunset and start a new life in Seattle, it was frustrating to see Chicago PD‘s Jay Halstead (Jesse Lee Soffer) abandon the IU and his wife, Hailey Upton (Tracy Spiridakos), to go fight cartel members out of the country.
Jesse Lee Soffer & Nick Gehlfuss reunited
We are not here to rile up fans, however. We’re here to provide some solace in the form of an Instagram post. The post comes courtesy of Chicago PD star Marina Squerciati, and it features a handful of One Chicago stars, past and present, at a Blackhawks game. Squerciati, who plays Kim Burgess on PD, is always good a fun post, but this one was especially exciting because it featured the reunion of the two Halstead brothers!
Jesse Lee Soffer AND Nick Gehlfuss can be seen in the photo, which is absolute treat given that fans never got to see a proper final scene between the two of them on the show (well, either show). The two men were all smiles, and if that weren’t enough to brighten your day, Tracy Spiridakos was also in attendance!
Tracy Spiridakos also attended the Blackhawks game
This effectively meant that we got a full-on Halstead family reunion at the Blackhawks game, since Upton was formerly the sister-in-law of Will Halstead. If all these personal connections and pieces weren’t enough to keep track of, then it’s also worth noting that Soffer and Spiridakos are dating in real life! How’s that for confusing!?
Chicago PD will be saying farewell to Spiridakos in a few weeks time, so this collection of IG photos will be even more special in the wake of her departure. The bottom line is, enjoy the One Chicago cast members while you can!
