Code Blue Cast of Characters

[Deleted]

Code Blue is a drama set in a NYC Hospital, mostly revolving around the Emergency Department and associated staff (Trauma surgeons and such). The show is entering it's 4th season, so there would probably be a range of new characters and ones that have been around since the start of the show. The below is a very general list of possible roles for the show, but it's by no means comprehensive so feel free to come up with other ideas.

Emergency Room Doctors:

Attending 1

Attending 2 - I'd love is this was a new female character, maybe new attending and maybe some romance plot between her and William's character (but not necessary)

Chief Resident

Dr. Christopher Reynolds (Resident) - Currently played by @wskylar

Resident 2

Medical Student - Currently Played by @theo

Nurses

Head Nurse - Currently Played by @imogen

Nurse 1 - Currently Played by @skinner

Nurse 2

Other Hospital Staff

Chief of the ER

Trauma Surgeon


Many different recurring roles - other doctors/nurses, EMTs, family of the hospital staff, etc

Many one time roles - hospital guests

I`d love to take up the attending 2 if you`d be okay with it.

Go for it!

Theo could be your Medical student if you're up for it.

[Deleted]

For sure that would work!

Tentative claim on head nurse role for my coming-soon actor character.

[EKANS]

All updated.. Although I'd need the names of the character they play, and maybe a bit about the personality of the character (gonna make the list look somewhat like the other cast lists)

Character Name: Alton Stone, 26
Background: a fresh new face. Alton grew up in and out of the system, both as a child and a deliquent. Always a go with the flow type of person he was easily influenced by those around him and at 20 he was a drug addict to prescription drugs, it consumed his life for most of his early twenties. At 24 he OD'd and his saving grace was a random stranger, a nurse, who found him barely breathing on the streets. Her random will to help him survive turned the almost in the grave young man into a man with a dream, to help others. The woman who saved him also became his girlfriend and together they got him though his nursing days.

(I wrote a novella. I'm sorry. But, like, I grew up with ER/Scrubs/Grey's Anatomy, I love it.)

Katherine "Kat" Foster, aged 34, Head ER Nurse - played by Imogen Hale

Kat Foster is the head nurse in the emergency department, (introduced in Season 2 after the departure/retirement of the older actress who had been playing a more maternal sort of character for the first season.) The daughter of wealthy and prominent members of New York society (who even have a wing of the hospital named in honour of their son who died tragically at a young age in a car accident,) Kat was a young woman devoted to little other than the parties and gossip of the Upper East Side. In the wake of her only sibling's death, however, she found her calling in the midst of her grief, and was determined to train to work in the kinds of trauma situations that save people's lives.

At first she thought of becoming a doctor--a surgeon--and her parents were supportive and even admiring. Kat soon discovered the insidious kind of elitism among surgeons, however, and felt that the human element of care she craved was absent. Redirecting her ambitions, she went into nursing, and excelled at it. Her parents don't understand this shift at all, and over the last decade, their relationship with their daughter has become increasingly strained as she's drifted further and further from the life of privilege they want her to be a part of, and avoiding many of her old friends and boyfriends who belonged to that same class.

When she was made head nurse in the department in season 2, her appearance was something of a shock to the ER staff, as she was a newcomer, and they didn't make it any easier for her once they found out she was one of Those Fosters ("the ones with the WING up on the fourth floor in pediatrics.") Rumours of having bought her way into the job circulated for a while, but in an environment like emergency care there is no room for incompetent people to pay their way, and so Kat has proven her worth hundreds of times over and over, and gradually come to find some measure of acceptance among her colleagues.

These bits of her characterization have been revealed over the last two seasons she's played the character, particularly in the more gossipy scenes surrounding her initial introduction to the staff, with the history of her family coming out more and more in subsequent dramatic plot arcs. Kat has proven herself (more or less) and found a kind of home in the long shifts and grueling work at the hospital, but there's still a sense that there's a kind of panicked emptiness in her personal life which she has only partially filled with her professional contentment. She knows, rationally, that she can't save everyone, but traumatic patient deaths--especially children--always hit her hard, though she tries to hide it and get on with her job as best she can.

Character name: Matthew King
Character Age: 22
Played by: Theodore Archer

Matthew King is this season's new fresh faced Medical student. He's almost an whole year younger than most medical students, this is the result of skipping two grades in high school and starting his medical training a month before he turned seventeen. He sailed through his five years of school. He's got a photographic memory and a smart mouth. While he absorbs information like a sponge he's hesitant about the practical things. He's got the smarts and the skills to be a great doctor but lacks the confidence.

Hi!
I'd like to take up the Attending 1, if that's ok?

[EKANS]

The only thing is that at 28, a person would be unlikely to be an attending. What about like either the 2nd resident or chief resident? Just so it appears more age appropriate.

[Deleted]

Oh, the chief resident would work as well! Sorry, it's just that I'm in the UK and we have different names for them over here
