The Next Grey's Anatomy? Netflix Unveils Full Trailer For Medical Drama Pulse — Watch
It's the year of the medical procedural! Following the debuts of ABC's Doctor Odyssey, Fox's Doc, Max's The Pitt, NBC's Brilliant Minds and CBS' Watson, Netflix will scrub in for rounds with Pulse on Thursday, April 3.
The 10-episode drama — which hails from executive producer Zoe Robyn (Hawaii Five-0, The Equalizer), who will serve as co-showrunner alongside fellow EP Carlton Cuse (Lost, Jack Ryan) — follows the staff of Miami's busiest Level 1 Trauma Center as they navigate medical emergencies. Per the official logline, as a hurricane comes barreling toward them, "third-year resident Dr. Danny Simms (played by The Fall of the House of Usher's Willa Fitzgerald) is unexpectedly thrust into a promotion when beloved Chief Resident Dr. Xander Phillips (The Continental's Colin Woodell) is suspended."
"Amid the worsening storm and an onslaught of trauma cases, the hospital goes into lockdown, and Danny and Phillips must find a way to work together — even as the bombshell details of a complicated and illicit romance between them begin to spill out," the logline reveals. "The rest of the ER is left to process the fallout of their relationship while balancing their own challenges, both personal and professional, as they work under the pressure of life-or-death stakes. Because for this tight-knit group of doctors, saving their patients' lives is often less complicated than living their own."
And if you're not already getting Grey's Anatomy vibes from the show's description, you likely will from the full trailer released on Thursday, which you can watch above.
Rounding out the series-regular ensemble are Justina Machado (One Day at a Time, ER), Jack Bannon (Pennyworth), Jessie T. Usher (The Boys), Jessy Yates (Me), Chelsea Muirhead (Warrior) and Daniela Nieves (Vampire Academy).
Recurring cast members includes Néstor Carbonell (The Morning Show), Jessica Rothe (Utopia), Santiago Segura, Ash Santos (Mayor of Kingstown) and Arturo Del Puerto (For All Mankind).
