Per Deadline, the new additions also include Pennyworth star Jack Bannon, Warrior‘s Chelsea Muirhead, and Vampire Academy‘s Daniela Nieves. The five actors join Willa Fitzgerald, Colin Woodell, and Justina Machado for Pulse. The series follows the staff of Miami’s busiest Level 1 Trauma Center as they navigate medical emergencies, as young ER doc Danny Simms, played by Fitzgerald, is unexpectedly promoted to Chief Resident amidst the fallout of her own provocative romantic relationship. Bannon will portray Tom Cole, a Surgical Resident who is “a witty and charming Brit who came to Miami for the excellent trauma program but also for the lifestyle that Miami offers.”

Usher plays Sam Elijah, “a third-year Emergency Medicine Resident. Born and raised in the Florida panhandle, Elijah is a thoughtful and altruistic doctor who, under his calm and considered demeanor, has a competitive edge.” Muirhead’s Sophie Chan is a surgical intern who is “Smart, capable, and willing to endure anything in her quest to become a great surgeon.” Nieves’s Camila Perez is a third-year medical student who stays optimistic despite the long hours and an endless workload. Yates will play Harper, Danny Simms’ younger sister. Harper is a self-assured second-year Emergency Medicine resident and wheelchair user.

Zoe Robyn and Carlton Cuse, who serve as showrunners and executive producers, created Pulse. Bradley Garner, Emma Forman, and Michael Klick also executive produce. Kate Dennis will direct and executive produce the medical procedural’s first two episodes.
