Actors Reunite 30 Years After Sharing ER Scrubs
26 Jul
Summary
- Adam Scott and Noah Wyle co-starred in an ER episode 30 years ago
- Both are now Emmy nominees for different shows
- Scott was nervous on set, but Wyle's calm confidence helped him

It's a small world in Hollywood, as two actors nominated in the same Emmy category this year once shared the screen 30 years ago. Adam Scott and Noah Wyle, who are both nominated for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for their work on "Severance" and "The Pitt" respectively, crossed paths back in 1995 when Scott had a guest role on an episode of ER.
Scott, who was just starting out in his acting career at the time, recalls being "super nervous" about working on the hit medical drama. However, Wyle, who was a fourth-year medical student on the show, helped calm his nerves with his cool and confident demeanor. Despite a minor flub during one of the long takes, Scott managed to get through the scene, which involved him being wheeled down the hospital hallway on a gurney.
Now, three decades later, the two actors find themselves in the same Emmy race, a testament to their enduring talent and success in the industry. While they haven't crossed paths on the awards circuit just yet, Scott hopes to reconnect with his former ER co-star as they navigate the exciting awards season together.
