‘New Amsterdam’: Season 3 Gets July Premiere Date On Sky Witness
‘New Amsterdam‘ reopens its doors this July, and as we revealed a few weeks ago, it will be premiering on a new home in the UK, on Sky Witness.
Inspired by the oldest public hospital in America, this unique medical drama stars Ryan Eggold (‘The Blacklist’) as the brilliant and charming Dr. Max Goodwin, the institution’s newest medical director, who sets out to tear up the bureaucracy and provide exceptional care. How can he help? Well, the doctors and staff have heard this before. Not taking “no” for an answer, Dr. Goodwin must disrupt the status quo and prove he will stop at nothing to breathe new life into this understaffed, underfunded and underappreciated hospital – the only one in the world capable of treating Ebola patients, prisoners from Rikers and the president of the United States under one roof – and return it to the glory that put it on the map.
In season three, Max and his team face the daunting task of sustaining that optimism while dealing with a pandemic that exposed the gaping inequities in our health care. Max is no longer content to fix a broken system. He’s determined to tear it down and build something better.
Alongside Eggold, the series also stars Janet Montgomery (‘The Romanoffs’) as Dr. Lauren Bloom, Freema Agyeman (‘Doctor Who’) as Dr. Helen Sharpe, Jocko Sims (‘Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan’) as Dr. Floyd Reynolds, Anupam Kher (‘Silver Linings Playbook’) as Dr. Vijay Kapoor, and Tyler Labine (‘StartUp’) as Dr. Iggy Frome.
The previous first two seasons premiered on Amazon Prime in the UK, but then were also broadcast on More4 in the UK, who had the “second run” rights, and added to Sky On Demand and NOW. It’s not clear whether Sky Witness will now be the only UK home for the medical series moving forward, or whether it will still pop up on the other locations at a later date.
‘New Amsterdam‘ Season 3 premieres Wednesday, 21st July 2021 at 9pm on Sky Witness in the UK.
