'The Resident' Showrunner Reveals When Conrad Will Find Love Again

It’s really only been two weeks since the official departure of Emily VanCamp as Nic Nevins on The Resident.

While fans are still heartbroken about her leaving the series, they’re curious about if and when Conrad (Matt Czuchry) will find love again – and it seems like it’s going to be soon.

According to co-showrunner Peter Elkoff, it will be sooner than many even think, all while admitting it’s tricky to say when is the appropriate amount of time for him to grieve.

“[Conrad and Nic] were such a beloved couple, and she was arguably the love of this character’s life,” he shared in an interview with TV Line. “He will end up with somebody, but not until we get closer to the end of the season.”

There are theories that it could be Jessica Lucas’ Billie, or even new doc Cade, who will be played by Kaley Ronayne.

Peter adds, “We will try to tell stories in a way, going forward, where the audience will go, ‘It’s going to be her. Wait, no! I think it’s going to be her. No, wait a minute. I bet you it’s going to be her.’ We’re going to try and pepper the episodes with moments of connection and collaboration and emotional moments with different people, where you feel like you’ve seen the beginning of something, and you may be right, or you may be wrong.”

If you missed it, Matt previously opened up about Emily‘s exit from the series.
