Dr. Daniel Charles (Oliver Platt) remains the Sherlock Holmes of psychiatry. Sharon Goodwin (S. Epatha Merkerson), the venerable head of the city\u2019s largest hospital, is under intense fiscal scrutiny to preserve the bottom line while continuing to ensure that all patients receive nothing short of quality care and compassion. Dr. Ethan Choi (Brian Tee), a former Navy flight surgeon and chief of the E.D., begins the season in recovery mode after being shot by a former patient. Now it\u2019s up to the blunt but talented Dr. Dean Archer (Steven Weber) to show what he\u2019s made of as interim chief \u00a0at the helm of Chicago\u2019s trusted and busiest ER. Maggie Lockwood (Marlyne Barrett), the charge nurse and eyes, ears and brain of the ER, is skilled and confident but finds herself dealing with profound family issues of her own. Ace surgeon Dr. Crockett Marcel (Dominic Rains), the New Orleans-raised surgeon with a breezy manner, has finally started to let his guard down, earning the respect of his colleagues. And now two new doctors have joined the E.D. family. Dr. Stevie Hammer (Kristen Hager) is a brilliant, scrappy emergency medicine doctor with a surprising past and Dr. Dylan Scott (Guy Lockard) is an ex-cop who\u2019s doing a dual residency in emergency medicine and pediatrics.<\/p>\n<p>Together they will confront Chicago\u2019s most critical medical cases and challenging ethical dilemmas with courage, compassion and state-of-the-art treatment. Inspired by ripped-from-the-headlines cases, \u201cChicago Med\u201d will weave cutting-edge medicine with the personal drama that comes with working in such a high-intensity environment. Through it all, familiar faces from \u201cChicago Fire\u201d and \u201cChicago P.D\u201d will intertwine with Chicago\u2019s finest medical heroes.<\/p>\n<p>Dick Wolf, Diane Frolov, Andrew Schneider, Stephen Hootstein, Derek Haas, Arthur Forney, Matt Olmstead, Michael Brandt and Peter Jankowski are executive producers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cChicago Med\u201d is produced by Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group, in association with Wolf Entertainment.<\/p>\n<div class=\"content bios__content\">\n<h3>Oliver\u00a0Platt<\/h3>\n<h4>Dr. Daniel Charles, &#8220;Chicago Med&#8221;<\/h4>\n<div class=\"bios__wrapper\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"photo\">\n<div class=\"photo__image\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"adf9e7ae-6844-464f-be57-5880569b25bd\" class=\"photo__asset alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/lightbox-thumbnails.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/NUP_194729\/adf9e7ae-6844-464f-be57-5880569b25bd\/NUP_194729_5253.JPG\" alt=\"CHICAGO MED -- Season: 7 -- Pictured: Oliver Platt as Dr. Daniel Charles -- (Photo by: Art Streiber\/NBC)\" width=\"229\" height=\"344\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"photo__buttons\">Oliver Platt plays Dr. Daniel Charles on the NBC drama \u201cChicago Med.\u201d<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>A multiple Emmy, SAG and Golden Globe Award-nominated actor, Platt\u2019s resume includes recent roles in \u201cProfessor Marston and the Wonder Women,\u201d which was nominated for a Saturn Award; \u201cThe Ticket,\u201d with Malin Akerman and Dan Stevens; Warren Beatty\u2019s \u201cRules Don\u2019t Apply,\u201d starring Alden Ehrenreich; \u201cShut In,\u201d opposite Naomi Watts; \u201cChef,\u201d opposite Jon Favreau and Dustin Hoffman; \u201cKill the Messenger,\u201d opposite Jeremy Renner; and Noah Hawley\u2019s Golden Globe-winning television adaptation of \u201cFargo\u201d for FX.<\/p>\n<p>Platt was featured in the HBO documentary \u201cLove, Marilyn\u201d and the telepic \u201cBessie,\u201d where he plays writer and artistic photographer Carl Van Vechten.
