‘Red Line’ puts Noah Wyle at centre of police shooting drama
PASADENA, Calif. — Noah Wyle is back in Chicago for a TV drama that’s far different than the 1990s hit “ER” that launched his career.
In CBS’ limited series “The Red Line,” Wyle’s character loses his African-American husband in a mistaken police shooting that’s the catalyst for family anguish and social uproar.
Wyle, who went from fresh-faced Dr. Carter in NBC’s 1994-2009 medical drama “ER” to action series including “The Librarian” and “Falling Skies,” choked up as he discussed “The Red Line,” a title referring to a major train line that cuts through Chicago’s diverse neighbourhoods.
