On the Set of RUSH: Tom Ellis and Rick Gonzalez Preview ‘Where Is My Mind?’

RUSH has shown its title character do a fair amount of questionable things over the show’s short run, but his antics in the latest episode are the farthest he’s gone yet: after Rush discovered his father had only helped Alex get his job back at the pestering of Corrinne, Rush’s stepmother, Rush slept with his father’s wife. (Whoops?)

But this is one indiscretion Rush won’t be able to brush off — the guilt will get to him. And on the show’s Vancouver set, Tom Ellis (Rush) previewed what’s in store, and Rick Gonzalez (Manny) teased how Manny will come into play…

RUSH’s Tom Ellis on His Complex Character: ‘He’s a Good Guy, He Just Makes Some Bad Choices’

On Thursday, July 17th at 9 PM, USA Network is debuting their new drama, RUSH, and the series is a slick, fun — but also complex — show that explores the world of a disgraced physician, Dr. Rush, who makes specialized house calls. (Think ROYAL PAINS meets RAY DONOVAN/SCANDAL…he has to deal with some seriously questionable clients and their majorly dirty laundry.)

And while there are heartbreaking and freakishly weird cases that will help propel the storyline forward (and will intrigue medical show junkies), RUSH star Tom Ellis (Rush) straddles the thin line of his character’s cockiness and extreme vulnerability with apparent ease, and elicits a level of sympathy that wouldn’t be there with a lesser actor.

Last month, Ellis sat down with reporters and talked about falling in love with his character, and playing a good guy who makes bad choices…
