From a Times staff writer

Noah Wyle, the only leading player from the original “ER” cast to have stayed with the show, will leave the medical drama at the end of this season. But he won’t disappear entirely: NBC says the actor has committed to returning for four episodes in each of the next two seasons.

Wyle, who plays Dr. John Carter, will bid farewell to colleagues at the Chicago hospital in the season finale, scheduled for broadcast May 19. He’s been with the show since it premiered in 1994, when his costars included George Clooney.
