'The Pitt' season 2: Sepideh Moafi joins the cast adding a fresh dynamic to the series
At the Pittsbugh Trauma medical hospital, also known as The Pitt, the 39 year old will play the character of an attending physician working in emergency medicine.
Sepideh Moafi's role is to bring fresh dynamics to the high-stress environment of the ER. Even though the backstory details of her are still unclear and enigmatic, and it's mysterious whether she has been part of the hospital throughout, staying out of the limelight in season 1, or if she is a new arrival following the dramatic episodes of the season 1 finale.
Regardless, her arrival definitely will bring change to the already intense emergency room, just as the story picks up during the busy Fourth of July weekend in Season 2.
What The Pitt is all about?
The Pitt has achieved attention in its very first season itself because of the portrayal of the real-time teaching and life in a teaching hospital's emergency room(ER). In every 15 episodes they covered just one dedicated one hour of a long and intense shift, holding the action almost thoroughly within the trauma centre.
For most of the characters the whole season unravels over their first day on the new job and pushes them into a whirlwind of trauma, personal growth and heartbreak.
This is created by ER veteran R. Scott Gemmill and executive produced by
Noah Wyle
and John Wells, and the series The Pitt has been compared to the classic medical dramas but carries new wave and modern perspective. Wyle also comes into view in the show as Dr. Michael 'Robby' Robinavitch, who is the experienced physician guiding the department. Joining Sepideh Moafi in Season 2 are new cast members Charles Baker, Irene Choi, Laëtitia Hollard, and Lucas.

Mary Kills People premiere shocks K-drama fans with euthanasia and same-sex themes
MBC's bold new drama Mary Kills People wasted no time making waves. Premiering on August 1, the series dove headfirst into two big taboo topics: euthanasia and underage same-sex attraction - both tackled within its very first episode. Veteran actress Lee Bo-young stars as Woo So-jung, an ER doctor who moonlights as a secret angel of death for terminally ill patients. Adapted from the Canadian series of the same name, the Korean remake reimagines the morally gray original with a culturally specific twist - one that's already igniting debate across Korean social media. Euthanasia enters the K-drama spotlight The opening sequence sets the tone: a gravely ill man named Choi Kang-yoon (played by special guest Lee Sang-yoon) calmly declares his intent to die. "This is my choice, and I feel happy and satisfied at this moment," he says, raising a glass of champagne dosed with pentobarbital. "How long will it take?" he asks. Woo So-jung's reply is emotionless: "Usually, it ends in an instant." And just like that -he's gone. Queer-coded teens raise eyebrows But the episode doesn't stop there. A provocative subplot features So-jung's teenage niece Jae-yeon (Kim Sang-ji) and her friend Woo-mi (Kang Na-eon), who spend a sleepover sharing moments that blur the line between platonic and romantic. "My mom thinks it's totally safe if it's just girls," Woo-mi scoffs. "She thinks she knows everything but knows nothing." The tension builds as the girls exchange lingering glances and tender compliments, including Woo-mi telling Jae-yeon, "Your eyes are really pretty." Pushing the boundaries of primetime From assisted dying to queer-coded adolescent intimacy, Mary Kills People is making it clear: this isn't your average K-drama. The premiere has already sparked fierce online discussion - some praising its plot while others are calling it deeply uncomfortable. Regardless of the views of K-drama fans, Mary Kills People has started a conversation Korea wasn't ready to have - but can no longer ignore. Episode 2 airs August 2 at 10 PM KST on MBC. For viewers abroad, fans can watch it on Prime Video. For all the latest K-drama, K-pop, and Hallyuwood updates, keep following our coverage here.
