We’re getting the first look at Doc, Fox‘s upcoming medical procedural based on the popular Italian series. The network released the clip Friday, ahead of it airing during Game 2 of the World Series Saturday on Fox.
Molly Parker stars as the hard-charging, brilliant Dr. Amy Larsen, Chief of Internal Medicine at Westside Hospital in Minneapolis. After a brain injury erases the last eight years of her life, Amy must navigate an unfamiliar world where she has no recollection of patients she’s treated, colleagues she’s crossed, the man she loves, or the tragedy that caused her to push everyone away. She can rely only on her estranged 17-year-old daughter, whom she remembers as a 9-year-old, and a handful of devoted friends, as she struggles to continue practicing medicine despite having lost nearly a decade of knowledge and experience.
In the clip, Parker’s Larsen is determined to get her life back after regaining consciousness, only to learn her husband has divorced her as she fights to resume the work she loves most, that of being a doctor.
The series also stars Omar Metwally, Amirah Vann, Jon Ecker and Anya Banerjee. Scott Wolf and Patrick Walker recur in featured roles.
The Italian series, Doc — Nelle tue mani, which was created and is produced by Lux Vide, a Fremantle Company, revolved around a male protagonist.
Doc is co-produced by Sony Pictures Television and Fox Entertainment Studios. Barbie Kligman serves as showrunner and executive producer. Hank Steinberg (Channel Road Productions) and Erwin Stoff (3 Arts Entertainment) are executive producers. Doc is based on the globally acclaimed Italian series, Doc — Nelle tue mani, which was created and is produced by Lux Vide, a Fremantle Company.
