Noah Wyleis officially back as the beloved Dr. Robby in the first images fromThe PittSeason 2, which can be found below. The new images, which come courtesy of EW, also showcase the first look at Dr. Al-Hashimi, who will be played bySepideh Moafi(Black Bird,Generation Q: The L Word). Al-Hashimi is an attending who arrives at Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center from the VA, where she has experience working with Dr. Mel King (Taylor Dearden) and Dr. Samira Mohan (Supriya Ganesh). Gemmill describes the new addition to the ER as “someone who is very progressive in her approach to medicine.”

WhileThe Pittwill bring in some fresh meat like Dr. Al-Hashimi, there will also be some fan-favorites back to reprise their roles. The first day back will focus onPatrick Ball’s Dr. Langdon, who was thought to be fired until he came back to help the victims of the mass shooting. Langdon’s fate was left up in the air at the end of Season 1, buthe confirmed earlier this summer, beforeThe PittSeason 2 began filming, that he would be back. Taylor Dearden has also teased more ofMel’s dynamic with Dr. Langdonin Season 2.
