Adam Ruzek’s father is returning to ‘Chicago P.D.’ to stir up some extra drama, as he all the time does. Who performs Adam’s father and what do we all know him from?
As Season Eight of Chicago P.D. progresses, we’re getting deeper into the trenches, and another episode with Adam Ruzek’s (Patrick Flueger) father is certain to be a dramatic one. The promo confirmed a ransom-esque video of Adam’s father, aka Bob “Disco Bob” Ruzek, so his fate is completely up within the air.
There are one million other ways Bob may just have an effect on Adam’s long term, but who’s the person behind the returning Chicago P.D. persona? Adam’s father has been so central to who Adam is and all the time displays up in probably the most inopportune techniques, so the actor who portrays him doesn’t have the perfect activity in the world.
Adam’s father on ‘Chicago P.D.’ is played through Jack Coleman.
Actor Jack Coleman portrays Adam’s father, Disco Bob, on Chicago P.D., and boy is he memorable. He’s given such life to the character that that is now the 3rd episode he’s guest-starring in after a Season 6 episode titled “Fathers and Sons.”
While his name might not be super recognizable, Jack Coleman has been in a ton of projects from which we indubitably recognize him. Most famously, he starred as Noah Bennet in Heroes and all of its spinoffs, but when we’re all nonetheless frequently binging The Office, we may well be extra acquainted with Jack as Senator Rob Lipton.
Funnily sufficient, that’s no longer the one senator Jack has played. In Castle, Jack played Senator William Bracken, and, like his character in The Office, Jack played a closeted gay persona, Daniel Douglas Langston, in Scandal. He additionally played Caroline Forbes' dad, Bill Forbes, who left her mom after confessing that he was homosexual, in The Vampire Diaries.
Playing Adam’s father on ‘Chicago P.D.’ is different from lots of Jack Coleman’s different roles.
Disco Bob does understand how to get himself into hassle, as we've up to now seen on Chicago P.D. He, like his son, is a police officer, however he generally simply does visitors work. Jack shared to TV Insider, “The extra we get to grasp Bob, the more we understand he’s more compromised than we had recognized.”
When requested about the newest episode of Chicago P.D., Jack explained that there’s “virtually the entirety you can see in a father-son relationship when the son too often has to be the parent ... [There’s everything] from love and satisfaction to sadness and harm and anger and then also the desperate need to make certain your family is OK.”
In real existence, Jack Coleman appears to be residing an ordinary life.
Even although he’s in a ton of tv shows, he doesn’t appear too public about his private existence. He married his wife, actress Beth Toussaint, in 1996. Together, they had a daughter named Tess, who was born in 1999. Jack isn’t exactly like several dads, even though! He has an Instagram he’s been maintaining with all the way through the COVID-19 pandemic.
He posts about his wife, his family, the displays he works on, and balloting rights! He’s all about advocating for honest vote casting rights so that everyone has a voice.
Let’s just hope Jack Coleman survives this Chicago P.D. episode in order that we get more of Adam’s father and more of Jack!
Chicago P.D. airs every Wednesday at 10 p.m. ET on NBC.
