Chicago Med season 11 spoilers: Why is Will Halstead back?

For those of you who missed the news not that long ago, Chicago Med season 11 is going to bring back an original cast member in Nick Gehlfuss. Now, let’s talk about another question: Why in the world is it happening?

Well, let’s just say that there are two apparent reasons for Will Halstead to return. One of them, per a report from TV Insider, is the milestone 200th episode for the show — meaning that this is a great way to help celebrate the overall legacy. Another one is tied simply to a story that could be fun and update us all on what’s happening with the character.

One thing that showrunner Allen MacDonald indicated about this return to the aforementioned publication is that Dr. Halstead will be back in town with Natalie Manning’s son, as the two are attending a Bears game. At some point, he will stop by the hospital, as well. All MacDonald would say about this is that “it’s a very special episode and by the end it will feel like a big deal.” Given how few shows these days make it to this milestone, we like to think that it is especially important.

Of course, we know leading up to this episode we are going to be seeing a lot of different storylines. The big one was set up back in the season 10 finale, where it remained unclear as to what is going to happen when it comes to Asher and Archer — are they having to be having a baby? Or, have we been tricked by the most recent cliffhanger? This is something that we do have to wonder at this particular moment.
