Who will be back for The Pitt season 3?

Robby will for sure be back, and creator R. Scott Gemmill teased that the lead doctor on the show has yet to hit rock bottom in terms of his mental health. Season 2 saw his disposition worsen as he kept joking that he may not return from his looming sabbatical trip alive.

“I like to think we are all engaged collectively in a five to six-year mental health journey that takes a character from a place of real brokenness to a place of health,” Wyle told Deadline. Hopefully, we’ll get them there together.”

Ayesha Harris has been promoted to series regular as Dr. Parker Ellis, a resident of the night shift at The Pitt. So far, she has appeared in two episodes of Season 1 and two episodes of Season 2.

A familiar face who will not be returning, is Supriya Ganesh’s Dr. Samira Mohan. Affectionately nicknamed “Slo Mo,” Dr. Mohan is known for being extra compassionate toward her patients, but things came to a head for her character for personal reasons in Season 2.

She was juggling the struggle to narrow her niche in her medical career as well as her mother’s relentless phone calls after Samira had originally planned to move closer to her childhood home, but found out that the house had been sold.

Robby was hard on Samira after she had a panic attack on shift, but then he suggested she look into geriatrics for her future as a doctor. He wasn’t the only one to make that suggestion.

It is to be expected that the cast will rotate with new and old faces coming in and leaving the show. Tracy Ifeachor did not return for Season 2 as Dr. Heather Collins.

What happened in Season 2 of The Pitt?

Patrick Ball’s Dr. Frank Langdon returned from his stint in rehab after stealing a patient’s drugs for his back pain in Season 1, which caused a huge rift between him and Robby. Sepideh Moafi joined the second season as Dr. Baran Al-Hashimi, the new attending physician poised to take over for Robby when he left on his sabbatical. By the end of that day’s shift, though, other plans had to be made.

Other new faces who joined season 2 included Laëtitia Hollard as Nurse Emma Nolan, Lucas Iverson as Med Student James Ogilvie, Irene Choi as Med Student Joy Kwon and Luke Tennie as Night Shift doc Crus Henderson. Sofia Hasmik plays Dr. Nazely Toomarian

Set during the Fourth of July, patients and treatments ranged from an angry red sunburn to victims of damage to a water slide, making it fall apart as park attendees were actively going down it. Still more memorable patients included a woman with a skin rash that turned out to be MRSA — requiring a leg amputation — and Robby’s good friend and motorcycle whisperer Duke (Jeff Kober), who has a tumor in his lungs that needs operation. ICE also came tot he hospital and disrupted the work flow.
