When Katherine Lanasa walked onto the set of The Pitt to begin filming the medical drama’s second season, she immediately noticed that something was different. There was, as she describes it, a veneer of success permeating across the cast and crew. “Everybody was a little more tanned, a little more buff, they’re all redoing their bathrooms,” she recalls with a laugh.
The show, created by ER writer-producer R. Scott Gemmill alongside star Noah Wyle and producer John Wells, debuted one year ago and became a smash hit — it’s now among HBO Max’s top three most watched series of all time. In September, it won five Emmys, including one for Lanasa’s performance as crowd-favorite charge nurse Dana Evans, and this season it will compete at the Golden Globe and Spirit awards (after winning big at the Critics Choice). But Lanasa, 59, is happiest about the fact that she still has a job.
