Chicago Fire season 15 has officially kicked off with an explosive premiere episode that answered all of our lingering questions from the season 14 finale cliffhanger. Between fates being revealed and bittersweet sendoffs, it was a busy start to the season. Not to mention, we were also introduced to a number of new characters we will be getting to know this season.
One of those characters was the new Firehouse 51 firefighter candidate Marcus Burke, who's played by Da'Vinchi. Burke has landed at the firehouse alongside fellow candidates Jansen (Joe Eichorst), Hollis (K.C. McNeil), and McCaffrey (Matthew Daddario) on the last stop of their probational period. Kidd's working with them as their training officer, and let's just say she's not yet impressed.
While the other three probie characters in Chicago Fire season 15 are expected to be recurring guest stars, Da'Vinchi joined the cast as a series regular. If we put two and two together, we can pretty much predict how the training storyline will end up for Marcus. But if you're wondering more about the actor playing him, including what he's been in before, we're sharing what to know!
Chicago Fire season 15 star Da'Vinchi age, height, and other roles
Da'Vinchi goes by the mononym professionally, but the actor's real name is Abraham D. Juste. He has Haitian roots and has also worked in music, spoken word, and other artforms on top of his work onscreen. He's 6 feet 3 inches tall and was born on Oct. 10, 1995, which means he was 30 years old when he made his Chicago Fire debut. But he celebrates his 31st birthday just days after the season 15 premiere.
He's currently the second youngest series regular in the cast, as he's a year older than Hanako Greensmith, who was born on Nov. 11, 1996 and will soon turn 30 years old. Da'Vinchi is also a year younger than Jocelyn Hudon and Brandon Larracuente, who were both born in 1994.
Da'Vinchi is from Brooklyn, New York and made his professional acting debut in 2018 with a role as Eric Ambrose in Jessica Jones, which he quickly followed up the same year with another guest starring role in Lethal Weapon. He also recurred in the Black-ish spinoff series Grown-ish as well as The CW's hit teen sports drama series All American between 2019 and 2025.
Most recently, Da'Vinchi was featured in the main cast of the Starz crime drama series BMF from 2021 through 2025, starring in all four seasons of the show. He played the character Terry "Southwest T" Flenory through BMF being canceled in October 2025. He also appeared in Netflix's latest Tyler Perry movie Why Did I Get Married Again? as Marcus Jr.
The actor's other movie roles include The Way Back, Vegas High, The Disappearance of Mrs. Wu, and the Lifetime movies Real Love, Strength of a Woman, and Family Affair. In addition to his acting career, Da'Vinchi is also active on social media, with 1.9 million followers on Instagram right now. Aside from posting about his projects, he also shares content speaking directly to his audience on various topics.
