Actor Derek Luke is ready to take over the small screen. The Antwone Fisher actor is set to star in NBC’s upcoming drama pilot “Trauma”.
The new show, which will presumably be one of two to help replace ER as the network’s de facto medical show, will follow a team of emergency medical technicians. Luke is said to play a stoic trauma doctor who also is trying his best to be a good family man. Luke become a breakout star after an awesome turn in 2002’s Antwone Fisher. He coolly handled the task of starring opposite the seasoned Denzel Washington. Most recently Luke can bee seen theaters now in this past weekend’s number one box office movie, “Madea Goes to Jail.” He also was in the Biggie Smalls biopic, “Notorious,” playing Sean “Diddy” Combs.
NBC is also producing “Mercy,” which will be an hour long drama that will follow the lives of three nurses.
