CHICAGO MED Stars Tease the Dynamic-Changing Fall Finale

CHICAGO MED’s Natalie (Torrey DeVitto) and Will (Nick Gehlfuss) have spent much of the past year—and certainly the entire season—estranged, but the fall finale has a new curveball in store for their dynamic.

“There’s going to be more Manstead drama,” DeVitto teases. “And what I love, what I’m really excited for people to see, is the winter finale has a twist on our whole Manstead thing. Everything we thought we knew about Manstead, the whole dynamic, is actually going to get flipped upside down. And I’m so excited for it. I’m so excited for people to see this point of view and see how people react to it.”

Complicating matters? Will has a few other women vying for his attention. So how might Natalie react if she decided she wanted to pursue Will again and realized others were pursuing him?

“You know, I don’t know,” DeVitto admits. “Their whole dynamic is so interesting, right? Because you can tell that Will has a really good intentions. And I think she knows that, deep down. But I just think the girl needs a break; she’s had so much relationship drama since the very beginning. There’s just so much; she needs a breather. She needs therapy. He needs therapy. They should go to couple’s therapy.”

But while Natalie may need some alone time if the Will thing doesn’t work out, the door isn’t entirely closed on Philip (Ian Harding), either. “There’s also an interesting Philip twist that comes up again,” she teases. “At least his effects are not gone.”

 

Things may be equally rough for Charles (Oliver Platt), whose wife, Caroline (Paula Newsome), has been gravely ill since their reconciliation—and seemingly took a turn in the last episode.

“I think that [showrunners] Andy [Schneider] and Diane [Frolov] did such a great job of organically getting us to this place where you would remarry somebody who you knew was going to die pretty soon,” Platt told reporters in the video below. “We talked about it a lot…if you remember that scene where I actually proposed to her on the roof…I didn’t know how badly her treatment was going. I knew that it was bad, but I didn’t know how badly. [But]…he gets a chance to make good, to sort of rewrite history a little bit.”
