Noah Wyle Leads New Max Medical Drama 'The Pitt' With 'ER' Team

The 15-episode series, focused on frontline healthcare workers in Pittsburgh, marks a reunion for Noah Wyle with 'ER' alumni John Wells and R. Scott Gemmill.

Max has ordered a 15-episode series titled 'The Pitt,' starring Noah Wyle and created by 'ER' alumni John Wells and R. Scott Gemmill.
The show aims to provide a realistic look at the challenges faced by today's healthcare workers, set against the backdrop of a modern-day Pittsburgh hospital.
R. Scott Gemmill, who executive produced over half of 'ER's 330 episodes, will serve as showrunner.
Warner Bros. Television, which previously backed 'ER,' will produce the series in association with John Wells Productions.
The project promises to push the boundaries of dramatic realism and medical accuracy, focusing on the lives of heroic men and women in medicine.
