Netflix Shares First Look at Medical Procedural Pulse

Netflix has shared photos from its first English-language medical procedural Pulse, which will premiere globally on the streaming service on April 3, 2025.

In the series, as a hurricane barrels towards Miami’s busiest Level 1 Trauma Center, third-year resident Dr. Danny Simms (Willa Fitzgerald) is unexpectedly thrust into a promotion when beloved Chief Resident Dr. Xander Phillips (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 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.

The cast includes Willa Fitzgerald, Colin Woodell, Justina Machado, Jack Bannon, Jessie T. Usher, Jessy Yates, Chelsea Muirhead and Daniela Nieves. Néstor Carbonell, Jessica Rothe, Santiago Segura, Ash Santos and Arturo Del Puerto also star.

Creator Zoe Robyn and Carlton Cuse are the showrunners and executive producers. Bradley Gardner, Emma Forman, Michael Klick and Kate Dennis are also executive producers.

“We wanted these characters to be real people who have to go through the relatable issues of working together in a pressure cooker. Relationships are forming and breaking apart on Pulse,” said Zoe Robyn.

Carlton Cuse added: “Nowadays, your work family can really be, apart from your literal family, the most important community you have. The complications that arise — between what’s going on off the clock and on the clock — can get messy. It can get confusing. That’s what we wanted to explore with Pulse.”
