2014 was the same year when the Beyond the Mask actress also landed her well-acclaimed role of Sylvie Brett in the drama series Chicago Fire. This was on September 23, 2014, during the third season premiere of Always. 

2014 was the best year for Kara Killmer, as this was the same year she was featured in Chicago Splash magazine. A year later, she made her debut in a feature film called Beyond the Mask. 

This is also the same action-adventure thriller movie where she first met her husband, Andrew Cheney, whom she married on May 14, 2016.

Kara Killmer talks about her favorite co-stars

Although she has a perfect ending in the series Chicago Fire, where Brett gets married to Matt Casey and is shown to move out of Chicago, the actress’ emotions are still attached to the sets of the drama series. 

Recently talking to NBC Insider, she spoke of her girl gang trio, which includes her, Hanako Greensmith, and Miranda Rae Mayo. 

During the interview, the 34-year-old actress said, "It's an ensemble cast, and we're all very close, but in a group full of mostly men, the ladies have got to stick together."

Further talking about favorite people in the set, Killmer said, "I can't tell you how many times Miranda has just, like, come and sat on Hanako's lap in the cab of the [ambulance] because we're all just trying to soak up each other's estrogen for a few minutes before we get back out there on set."
