CHICAGO MED’s Dr. Dean Archer (Steven Weber) is sticking around—Weber has been bumped up to a series regular role in the upcoming seventh season, a rep for the show has confirmed.

“He’s an old-school guy…and he’s subordinate now to a superior surgeon,” Weber told reporters earlier in the year. “The mentor is now being taught by the student…it’s an interesting dynamic that the writers have inserted, that’s fairly universal for people of a certain age. They’ve got to understand that they’re no longer at the crest of the wave anymore. It’s something that I am wrestling with as an actor of a certain age who has been around a long time.”

Additionally, Guy Lockard and Kristen Hager are joining the cast as new additions to the hospital. Lockard will portray Dr. Dylan Scott, a former CPD offer who became a doctor, while Hager plays Dr. Stevie Hammer, a new emergency room attending physician.

The new characters come in the wake of original series stars Torrey DeVitto (who played Natalie) and Yaya DaCosta (who played April) in the season 6 finale.

The casting was first reported by Deadline.

CHICAGO MED, Season Premiere, Wednesday, September 22, 8/7c, NBC
