Netflix is set to debut 'Pulse,' its first English-language medical procedural, on April 3, 2025. The series follows third-year resident Dr. Danny Simms, played by Willa Fitzgerald, who is unexpectedly promoted amid a hurricane when Chief Resident Dr. Xander Phillips, portrayed by Colin Woodell, is suspended. As the hospital goes into lockdown and faces an influx of trauma cases, Danny and Xander must navigate their complicated romantic relationship while managing life-and-death situations. The show features a diverse cast, including Justina Machado and Jessie T. Usher, and is co-created by Zoe Robyn and Carlton Cuse, known for his work on 'Lost.' The trailer indicates a mix of intense medical emergencies and personal drama, setting the stage for a series reminiscent of classics like 'Grey's Anatomy.' 'Pulse' aims to carve out a niche among recent medical dramas, competing with shows like 'The Pitt' and 'St. Denis Medical.'
