‘On Call’ with Stars Troian Bellisario and Brandon Larracuente

Troian Bellisario and Brandon Larracuente portray Traci Harmon and Alex Diaz in On Call, which is Wolf Entertainment’s first scripted streaming series. All episodes of season one are now streaming on Prime Video.

On Call is an adrenalized and visceral police drama that follows a rookie and veteran officer duo as they go on patrol in Long Beach, California. Shot with a mixture of hand-held cameras, bodycam and dash-cam footage to create a cinema verité effect, the innovative series explores the morality of protecting and serving a community.

“I think day one when Diaz is meeting Harmon just after experiencing a tragic loss of not only a fellow officer but a friend. And then, [there is] a point in the show where Harmon is about to make a decision that might alter her career and that might change the trajectory of her life, and she gives Diaz the opportunity to basically sit this one out because it’s something that she has to pursue but she’s gonna give him the choice whether he wants to pursue it with her. I feel like in that moment, the two characters from two different walks of life, they become one and they start to really work in unison together towards a common goal,” Larracuente concluded.

“Those are really beautiful moments and yeah, that moment that you’re talking about where she says, ‘You can sit this one out, you’re either 100% with me or not,’ because from that moment on, particularly at the call that they’re about to go on, they have to be partners,” Bellisario continued to explain. “She cannot be above him. They have to be moving through that scenario absolutely on equal footing and so, I think that that is a really beautiful way that [is] kind of like, there’s no hierarchy. It slams them right on the same level. And then, I think there’s another really wonderful moment where, you know, throughout as much of the series as she can, I think Harmon is really trying to hold Diaz at an arm’s length for his own protection and for her own protection. Going through the loss that she did, I think she’s like, ‘I’m not gonna do that again. I wanna make sure that he’s safe, but I cannot let him in too close.’ Then, we find out something about his family and we find out something about her family, and there’s this really incredible moment where he sees just this crack right through her and it’s really wonderful because she has not been helping him at that point in the same way that he would like her to, but he still offers out his hand to her and says, ‘Let me help with this.’ It’s an incredible moment because she trusts him. She trusts him with something that I don’t think she wants anybody to witness.”
