“I remember going to Upfronts in New York, going into Season 2 or 3, and running into Mariska Hargitay. She had just got done negotiating her deal for season 16 or 17, and that was a whole other thing — it wasn’t even in my brain that something like that would be possible, let alone in the cards,” says Kinney, who has been on “Chicago Fire” since its start in 2012.
