Sophia Bush Leaving Chicago P.D. After Four Seasons

Chicago P.D. is losing a series regular. Sophia Bush is exiting the show after four seasons.

Bush is leaving on her own accord. A possible exit for the actress was hinted in the recent Season 4 finale of Chicago P.D, which saw her character, Detective Erin Lindsay, on the verge of accepting a job with the FBI in New York. The episode ended with a cliffhanger, with Lindsay standing on a bridge, ignoring Jay (Jesse Lee Soffer)’s call.

There is a possibility for Bush to return for a guest-starring arc to wrap her character’s story. I hear the show is mulling bringing in a new prominent female cast member though it also may stick with its remaining cast. NBC and reps for Bush declined comment. Bush’s departure is a loss for the entire Chicago/SVU franchise, which has the characters cross over between shows. She has appeared in 22 episodes total of the other three Chicago series and Law & Order SVU.
