‘Grey’s Anatomy’ will have season 19, in fact, it is already in production and Meredith Gray will appear in it, yes, only less than we expected. As Deadline reports, Ellen Pompeo accepted a role outside the Gray Sloan Memorial Hospital medical franchise for the first time in 17 years.therefore you will have to reduce your participation in the series created by Shonda Rhimes to be able to combine both projects.
Pompeo will appear in eight episodes of the likely 20 or 22 that the season will have, now as interim chief of surgery at the hospital and having been unable to move to Minnesota with Nick Marsh (Scott Speedman). He will also continue to introduce the episodes as a narrator in most episodes and She will continue her duties as executive producer. The 18 seasons broadcast so far have averaged about 25 episodes per year and the 400 barrier has already been crossed. In any case, it is not the first time that Pompeo has reduced his screen time in the series, already in season 17 he has has spent most of history in a coma due to COVID visiting many of the characters who have died in the series all these years on a beach.
the new series
The last time Pompeo played a character other than Gray was in the 2005 film “Life of the Party”, shortly before he was cast for “Grey’s Anatomy.” We had already seen her in “Masterstroke”, an episode of “Friends”, “Undermind”, “That College Party”, in “Daredevil” by Ben Affleck and falling in love with Leonardo DiCaprio in “Catch Me If You Can” by Steven Spielberg . .
The actress changes ABC for Hulu to star in “Orphan”, a miniseries inspired by the true story of Natalia Grace, the young Ukrainian woman who was abandoned by her adoptive parents in Canada in 2013 because they claimed to be a sociopathic adult who passed off as an orphan and wanted to kill them. As early as last October Pompeo was talking about his plans for when the final end of “Grey’s Anatomy” will come and, even if no one says it will be after season 19, it is probably not very far. As revealed in the interview: “I probably wouldn’t do movies per se, but I’d probably do some streaming or television.”
