Tee and Donnell had both been part of the original Chicago Med cast during its season one premiere back in 2015, starring as Dr. Ethan Choi and Dr. Connor Rhodes respectively.
Donnell left the medical procedural show in 2019, with his character Connor making his exit from Chicago Medical Center during the season five premiere after suspecting that his father had been murdered by his ex-girlfriend.
Meanwhile Tee confirmed his departure from the series in 2022 after eight seasons, with his exit storyline seeing his character tie the knot with April Sexton (Yaya DaCosta). His departure also coincided with the exits of fellow original cast members DaCosta, Nick Gehlfuss and Torrey DeVitto.
Following his exit Tee announced that he would be returning to season nine as a director, being credited for episode 8 'A Penny for Your Thoughts, Dollar for Your Dreams' and episode 9 'Spin a Yarn, Get Stuck in Your Own String'.
