Chicago Fire season 12, when he ends up in a relationship with Violet.
Now, TVLine has confirmed that Lockett's Carver has been promoted to a series regular in Chicago Fire season 13 after having been in a recurring role since season 11. This indicates a much larger role for the firefighter going forward, potentially having to do with him and Violet's romance. With his place on the team now solidified by this news, it means a much larger character story is waiting for him moving forward.
How Will Carver’s Story Evolve In Chicago Fire Season 13?
A key reason why it’s taken so long for Carver to become a major part of the team is because of his trust issues, built up by a family who doesn't care about him. This made it difficult for him to accept the genuine friendship of others within Firehouse 51, something he needed time to warm up to before finally becoming a valued member of the team. Chicago Fire season 13 will see him get closer than ever before thanks to a relationship with Violet, something that will show how much he truly feels he can trust his new circumstances.
Since this will be his first romantic connection within the team, it remains to be seen how close the pair will be able to get depending on how much Carver feels he can trust her. Since Violet is a pre-established character, his closeness to her could offer a deeper understanding of his character as the story progresses. This could include his true feelings about trusting the rest of the team, perhaps even Boden's exit in Chicago Fire season 12 making him consider what the future will hold.
Since his time as a series regular is only just beginning, it will prove interesting to see what kind of overarching storylines he gets involved in as the show continues. With his newfound spark with Violet no doubt being a key part of his character development, Chicago Fire can show how a romantic relationship will cause him to further evolve. Now that his bigger role on the team has been confirmed, any number of storylines could transpire with him as a major facet.
Chicago Fire season 13 begins Wednesday, September 25 on NBC.
