“Chicago Med” Shake-Up: Dominic Rains to Depart After 5 Seasons as Dr. Crockett Marcel
The actor's exit from the series comes amid other changes to the One Chicago franchise
Dominic Rains is hanging up his scrubs at Gaffney Medical Center.
The actor, 42, who plays Dr. Crockett Marcel, is leaving Chicago Med after five seasons, PEOPLE has learned.
Rains’ exit was hinted at during the NBC medical drama’s season 9 finale, entitled “I Think I Know You, but Do I Really?” After a young patient of Crockett’s died, the patient’s father committed suicide — a traumatic event that reminded Crockett of the loss of his own daughter from leukemia. When the doctor relayed the news to Sharon Goodwin (S. Epatha Merkerson), she told Crockett to take time off.
“Take all the time you need, please,” Sharon said.
