Everything to Know About Chicago P.D. Season 11, Including the Premiere Date
The Intelligence Unit is returning to our screens, One Chicago fans!
On April 10, news hit that NBC had officially renewed Chicago P.D. for Season 11, along with the rest of Dick Wolf's shows for the network, which include the rest of One Chicago—Chicago Med and Chicago Fire—and the Law & Order franchise: Law & Order, Law & Order: SVU, and Law & Order: Organized Crime.
“I’m pleased to continue my four-decade relationship with Universal Television and NBC,” Wolf said in a statement. “All six shows being picked up again is the ultimate accolade to our incredible casts, producers and writers. I'd also like to thank our loyal fans who have kept our NBC shows on the air for what will be a cumulative 84 seasons.”
“We understand the emotional connection our audience has with these characters and we can’t wait to bring more of their stories to the forefront next season,” Lisa Katz, the president of scripted programming at NBCUniversal and Streaming, also said in a statement. “A huge thank you to Dick and his amazing team who are the masters of producing incredibly compelling television week after week.”

What will happen in Chicago P.D. Season 11?
It's nearly impossible to predict what could happen in Season 11. However, we do know that fans hope Burgess and Ruzek maintain their newly-rekindled romance after spending the past three seasons as platonic co-parents.
"If Instagram comments are any indication, most of the fans are like, 'Just leave them alone, leave them alone,'" Flueger told NBC Insider. "So I think we’ve got enough opportunities for drama on our show that maybe you’ll actually be able to see two people just kind of be happy together."
He continued, "[Marina and I have] definitely both told the writers—and, you know, we can tell them anything we want, but it doesn’t mean they’re going to listen—that if they break us up again, like, please let’s not try this again because it’s too much. It’s too much."
It'll also be interesting to see how Upton continues to (not) deal with Halstead's absence after he left Chicago for Bolivia following Jesse Lee Soffer's exit from the show.
“This ultimately will change her in some way, which I’m interested to see how," Spiridakos told Variety. "We’re still in the change. She finds out that he’s extended his stay and has that breakdown moment of having this hope and then all of a sudden, that’s gone. It’s the first time we see her break down since he’s left, since their goodbye. I think there’s gonna be some changes for her over the next little while.”
