A new FBI: International season 4 story detail reveals one key part of Jesse Lee Soffer's character, Agent Wesley "Wes" Mitchell, teasing what to expect from his storyline ahead. FBI: International season 4 will see Soffer's Wes arrive as the new leader of the Fly Team, situating himself alongside established members after Scott Forrester (Luke Kleintank) went off the grid with his mother in season 3. His arrival marks a major change for the team, whose dynamics will be shifted now that their former leader is gone and a stranger has replaced him.
Speaking with TVLine about his new role, Soffer revealed "Wes is currently in a relationship,” in FBI: International season 4, “and that will be the cause of some future drama.” This revelation indicates one key focus of his character outside the wider team, also meaning another new person is going to be introduced alongside him during season 4. While the actor didn't reveal any concrete information about his character's relationship, his statement indicates it will be a key factor for his storyline as the Fly Team learns more about him.
What Soffer's Character Being In A Relationship Means For FBI: International Season 4
Soffer Is No Stranger To Relationships In Dick Wolf Procedurals
Wes being in a relationship isn't too surprising, with Soffer already having relationship experience in a Dick Wolf TV show thanks to his role as Jay Halstead in Chicago P.D. While on the series, Halstead got married to Detective Hailey Upton (Tracy Spiridakos), before the pair got divorced offscreen after Soffer left. With his season 10 departure and new role meaning he likely won't be guest starring on the cast of Chicago P.D. season 12, it makes sense for him to have an engaging relationship story in his new series.

FBI: International's Fan-Favorite Character Poses The Biggest Challenge For Scott Forrester's Replacement
FBI: International's Wes Mitchell taking over Scott Forrester's role becomes trickier because another member of the Fly Team will return in season 7.
Since no concrete information has been revealed about Wes' relationship, it seems like something that won't be expanded upon until the series begins airing. His already being in a relationship means the character likely won't be someone previously introduced. It also means there will be plenty of personable elements will be weaved together with the team getting used to Kleintank's exit from FBI: International and their new leader showing up. Depending on its presentation, the relationship could also be used to make the team better trust Wes because someone else does.
Our Take On Soffer's Character's Relationship In FBI: International Season 4
It Will Flesh Out His Dynamics Better
By having Wes in a relationship prior to his joining the Fly Team, FBI: International gives him a life outside the team right away, potentially making him more personable. This can help not only the team members get to know him better, but also the audience as they see him interact with his significant other. Although they've yet to be revealed, it seems this relationship will still be a core factor in the show as the new leader adjusts to his position.
FBI: International season 4 begins Tuesday, October 15 at 10 p.m. ET on CBS.
