The Resident appears to feature the idealistic Devon Pravesh having idealistic expectations of entering the field of medicine, only to have those expectations shattered or met.
The Resident focuses on a young doctor named Devon Pravesh, who is played by Manish Dayal, and their brilliant but brash and cocky senior resident Conrad Hawkins (Matt Czuchry).
Czuchry will co-lead the series alongside Dayal and Bruce Greenwood, whose role has not been announced at this time.
The pilot is said to pull back the curtain on the realities of modern medicine and focus on lives saved and lost on the job.
