Dick Wolf is a producer of crime stories, such as the television series Miami Vice (supervising producer) and NBC’s Law & Order, which he created. Plots of Law & Order were often based on real cases that recently made headlines (“Ripped from the Headlines”), and lasted for 20 seasons. Episodes were shot in New York City with emphasis on local characters, dialects, neighborhood customs, history and cityscapes.
Many locals and people across the nation, and around the world have already expressed interest to The Cardinal that they are hoping the television show about Chicago firefighters and paramedics would pick up a similar local feel of the melting pot of Chicago and it’s welcoming of diaspora from many ancestral homelands.
Dick Wolf could have an extreme hit on his hands. Knowing that the show would be a local hit is a no-brainer. But a genius could turn ‘Chicago Fire’ into an international sensation.
Michael Brandt, Danielle Gelber, Derek Haas, and Peter Jankowski are executive producers. John L. Roman is producer, and Dick Wolf is executive producer.
