First Look at Mercy Street and Teaser!

The Washington Post has posted a great behind the scenes video giving us a first look at PBS’ new Civil War medical drama, Mercy Street.

Programming executive Beth Hoppe says the cast of “Mercy Street,” including “How I Met Your Mother” star Josh Radnor, who plays pioneering surgeon Jedediah Foster, “The Wire” veteran Peter Gerety as a fellow doctor, and “Scott Pilgrim Versus The World” star Mary Elizabeth Winstead as nurse Mary Phinney, embraced research for their parts, including watching their way through Ken Burns’ nine-part documentary “The Civil War.”

Check out the behind the scenes footage and interview below:
