Anthony Ferraris- Professional Life, Career
Ferraris had never done any acting, nor had he ever considered being an actor. In fact, his role on the show came to him entirely by chance.
In an interview for Wolf Entertainment, Ferraris explained how he ended up on the show after being dragged to the audition by a friend. His friend received an email from the firefighter’s union saying the show was looking for extras.
When his friend asked if he’d come along. Ferraris agreed to the show and he got a role as an extra, but he never imagined it would turn into the recurring role that he has now.
On the first day of filming, the crew realized nobody on the cast was able to drive the squad. Steve Chikerotis, the show’s technical advisor, who he had known for years, asked him if he would drive.
Then Derek Haas (Chicago Fire showrunner) approached him around episode five or six. Ferraris was extremely lucky to be in the right place at the right time, but he also had exactly the skills they were looking for.
Adding Ferraris as a regular member of the cast adds an incredible sense of reality to the show that they probably would get with an actor.
The show’s producers realize this, and that’s why the crew just wants him on set. “They all say, ‘That’s why they hired Anthony,’ because he was born and raised Chicago guy.
But even with the freedom to completely be himself on set, Ferraris still finds acting difficult sometimes.
“It’s still hard,” he said. “It’s easier now, but in the beginning, it was very awkward to him.”
