Moafi will be in a series regular role as an attending physician in emergency medicine. The Pitt is a unique medical drama as its first season focused on a single 15-hour shift in the ER department as its physicians and surgeons had to deal with trauma after trauma as well as their own personal problems.
The second season is currently in production.
