Eamonn Walker received a glowing send off from “Chicago Fire” creator and executive producer Dick Wolf. In a statement to Deadline, Wolf, who created the popular series over a decade ago, spoke highly of Walker and his contribution to the show. “Eamonn was the first actor cast on Chicago Fire, and we knew once he said yes, that we were off and running,” said Wolf, adding, “His character Chief Wallace Boden was the undisputed leader of Firehouse 51 and, off-screen, Eamonn has filled the same role with our ensemble cast.” Producer Andrea Newman also gushed about Wolf, calling him “the most big-hearted, passionate, hard-working and dedicated actor (and human).”
Unsurprisingly, Walker seemed to feel just as strongly about his time on “Chicago Fire.” During his last day on set for Season 12, after his final shot wrapped, he poured out his heart as he took a moment to address his castmates and crew members. “I just want to say … Best cast, best crew, best production. Best job of my life. Thank you,” Walker, who was still dressed in his character’s fire gear, said during a clip posted to the Wolf Entertainment Instagram account. His reception was just as emotional, with the cast and crew breaking out into a round applause. Near the end of the video, an unidentified staffer walked up to Walker and embraced him. “Love you bro,” he said.
