CHICAGO P.D.: LaRoyce Hawkins Teases Fun Upwater Interactions in ‘Still Water’

Upton’s (Tracy Spiridakos) off-hours jog takes a dramatic turn on the Wednesday, February 23 episode of CHICAGO P.D., when she has to risk her life to save victims of a car crash.

“[‘Still Water’ is] the most thrilling ride, because of the stunt and special effects that Upton [deals with],” LaRoyce Hawkins, who plays Atwater, teases. “Oh my God, watching that is gonna be like watching one of those old TOMB RAIDER, Lara Croft films. Tracy goes in—I think it’s going to be dope to watch her, along with the help of stunts and special effects, and Chad Saxton who directed it.”

And though Atwater and Upton’s interactions tend to be more limited, the hour also provides “some dope moments between Atwater and Upton,” Hawkins previews. “We [generally] see a lot of Burgwater, but we don’t see a lot of Upwater. So for us to find that Upwater moment…that’s what I’m looking forward to—it’s gonna be dope.”

Looking even further down the line, Hawkins teases there’s a late-season installment he’s excited to dig into.

“I can’t wait for [fans] to see the next Ike Smith joint,” he shares, referencing the scribe who has written/co-written episodes like “Lies,” “Burnside,” and “Protect and Serve.” “That’s coming down the line—it might be episode 19. Him and [showrunner] Gwen [Sigan] are working on something very special. It’d be another special [episode about] Atwater….that’s a long-term goal for the fans [to look forward to].”
