deadline.comEXCLUSIVE: Augustus Prew has been cast as a series regular opposite Ben McKenzie and Michelle Ortiz in ABC’s medical drama pilot The Hurt Unit, written by Matt Lopez and John Glenn and to be directed by Marc Webb.
The Hurt Unit follows a highly skilled team of trauma surgeons and nurses led by Danny (McKenzie), a self-made surgeon, who race into the field to treat the patients who won’t make it to the hospital in time.
