In the country’s busiest emergency room, you’re either looking for a miracle…or performing one. In CODE BLACK, Season One, Residency Director Dr. Leanne Rorish (Oscar winner* Marcia Gay Harden) leads four first-year residents through the life-or-death challenges that will change the course of their careers and lives. Rookies Christ Lorenson (Bonnie Somerville), Malaya Pineda (Melanie Chandra), Mario Savetti (Benjamin Hollingsworth) and Angus Leighton (Harry Ford) dive into the chaos of Angels Memorial Hospital, hoping to learn from the best while facing some of life’s worst. Head Nurse Jesse Sallander (Luis Guzman), affectionately known as “Mama,” administers tough love as the ER’s main manager and Dr. Rorish’s closest friend. Each doctor has their personal reasons for being here, and the scars of their past come into play even as they work to save others’ futures.
