It’s the One Chicago reunion fans didn’t know they needed — and it’s sending the internet into a nostalgia spiral.
A newly resurfaced photo shows the stars of Chicago P.D. and Chicago Med arm-in-arm and all smiles outside a restaurant, proving that even off screen, the One Chicago bond runs deep. From Sophia Bush (Erin Lindsay) in a bright yellow coat to Jesse Lee Soffer (Jay Halstead) and other familiar faces from the franchise, this rare group shot captures the kind of off-duty joy that has longtime fans feeling emotional.
The candid moment showcases just how close the cast truly was during the golden era of the franchise. While many have moved on to new projects, their friendship clearly hasn’t faded. Also spotted in the photo are Marina Squerciati (Burgess), Patrick Flueger (Ruzek), and other behind-the-scenes crew members, reminding viewers that the magic of One Chicago went far beyond the scripts.
Fans flooded the comments with emotional responses, calling the reunion “iconic,” “bittersweet,” and “the crossover moment we miss every week.” Some even begged NBC to bring back departed characters for a future special event episode.
At a time when franchise shakeups and cast exits are making headlines, this photo was a refreshing reminder of the camaraderie, chemistry, and warmth that helped launch the One Chicago universe into prime-time dominance.
Whether it was just a friendly brunch or something more, one thing’s clear — the family bond forged on the streets of Chicago still holds strong.
