Chicago P.D. fans, brace yourselves — Officer Kevin Atwater is about to take a bold leap in Season 13, and according to LaRoyce Hawkins, it could redefine everything we thought we knew about his character.
In a recent interview, Hawkins opened up about what lies ahead for Atwater, teasing a “season of transformation” filled with unexpected turns, emotional tests, and moral crossroads.
“We’re going to see Atwater step into spaces he’s never been in before,” Hawkins revealed. “Not just as a cop, but as a man. He’s asking bigger questions — about justice, loyalty, and what it really means to protect his city.”
Hawkins also hinted that Season 13 could see Atwater finally confront some long-buried trauma — including the emotional fallout of past cases, internal tension with the team, and his complex relationship with authority figures.
“There’s going to be a shift in the way he operates,” Hawkins added. “He might not always follow the rules — but it’ll be with purpose.”
This season, fans can expect Atwater to take center stage with a storyline that’s not only action-packed, but deeply personal. And if Hawkins’ words are any indication, Chicago P.D. is about to deliver some of its most compelling drama yet.
