In the trailer, Dr. Robby finds his co-worker and old rival, played by Shawn Hatosy, standing on the edge of the Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Hospital’s roof. “If you jump on my shift that’s just rude, man,” Dr. Robby tells him. “Hope I’m never one of your patients,” he grumbles in response. Robby quips back, “Makes two of us my friend.”

Additional cast members include Tracey Ifeachor as Dr. Collins, Patrick Ball as Dr. Langdon, Supriya Ganesh as Dr. Mohan, Fiona Dourif as Dr. McKay, Taylor Dearden as Dr. King, Isa Briones as Dr. Santos, Gerran Howell as Whitaker, Shabana Azeez as Javad and Katherine LaNasa as Dana Evans.
