Scott Elrod, who previously played Meredith's love interest in Grey's Anatomy, will appear in Chicago Fire's fifth season as a gorgeous lifestyle celebrity with millions of Instagram followers.
"This guy always has a party going on, always has a new adventure to rope in a new friend," Derek Haas, executive producer teased.
"He feels like Severide is a real guy, not the usual hanger-on, entourage type of guy that he's used to hanging out with, so he's attracted to Severide in that way. He's going to cause some mischief over the first three episodes."
In addition to his role as Dr. Wiliam Thorpe on ABC drama hit series Grey's Anatomy, Elrod's TV credits include The Young and the Restless and Men in Trees.
Season 5 picks up after the finale which saw Casey choose to return to longtime love Dawson, while Jimmy finds himself still deeply affected by the death of his brother. Meanwhile, Severide, portrayed by Taylor Kinney, deals with the situation between Kidd and Kidd's ex.
Chicago Fire Season 5 premieres on October 11.
