"Mercy" (2010) - Starring Guillermo Diaz

I did background work on a Pilot for NBC called "Mercy" which has been picked up.

It stars Delroy Lindo and Guillermo Diaz of Showtime's "Weeds."

I found an article where Guillermo Diaz discusses his character at the link below:

You're also on the new NBC series Mercy that got picked up, so what can you tell us about that, and your character?

Guillermo Diaz: Well, yeah, it's called Mercy and we all work in a sort of run-down hospital in New Jersey that's called Mercy Hospital. I play a gay nurse named Angel Lopez, which is pretty cool because it's a complete 360 from the character I'm playing now. That's pretty nice. It sort of revolves around the lives of the nurses in the hospital and one of the nurses just got back from Iraq and each of the nurses has their own little storylines. We'll start shooting the series and we'll be on the air in January on NBC. Delroy Lindo is in it and James LeGros and I think it's going to be a really great show. People seem to really like it, so I'm excited about working on that.

It also stars James Tupper who recently had a baby with Anne Heche.

James Tupper has been cast in NBC's drama pilot "Mercy" from Universal Media Studios. The dramedy focuses on three Mercy Hospital nurses, their friendship and the highs and lows of their work and personal lives. Tupper is in to play Dr. Chris Sands, a new doctor at the hospital who had an affair with one of the nurses at a time when both were stationed in Iraq. Tupper starred on ABC's dramedy "Men in Trees" and was also in the indie film "Me and Orson Wells."
