Rick Eid is stepping down as showrunner of CBS‘ FBI, after having launched the hit drama six years ago.
Dick Wolf, the prolific producer behind the FBI, Law & Order and #OneChicago franchises, said in a statement, “Rick has been a core member of the Wolf family for two decades.
We thank him for all the work he did on FBI to get the series launched and look forward to continuing our creative partnership on Law & Order and beyond.”
Eid will stay on as an executive producer on the franchise’s mothership, which recently netted a three-season (!) renewal, as well as continue as showrunner on NBC’s Law & Order (which is already renewed for Season 24).
