As fans eagerly await the twentieth season of the beloved medical drama Grey's Anatomy, the question on everyone's mind is: which familiar faces will be gracing the halls of Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital once again? Grey's Anatomy season 20 is expected to premiere on September 27, 2023, on ABC. The show has been renewed for a 20th season, making it the longest-running medical drama in television history.
The plot of season 20 is still under wraps, but it is expected to pick up where season 19 left off. The season finale saw the departure of two major characters, Jackson Avery (Jesse Williams) and April Kepner (Sarah Drew). It is also unclear whether Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo) will return for season 20. Pompeo has said that she is open to returning for more seasons, but she has also expressed interest in leaving the show.
A familiar ensemble: Grey's Anatomy Season 20
The news of the returning cast members brings a sense of nostalgia and excitement for longtime fans. Chandra Wilson, who portrays the steadfast Dr. Miranda Bailey, will continue to showcase her exceptional acting skills. Likewise, James Pickens Jr., known for his portrayal of the wise and compassionate Dr. Richard Webber, will also be part of Season 20.
These two talented actors have been with the show since its inception, providing a sense of continuity and familiarity.
Joining Wilson and Pickens Jr. in Season 20 are several other beloved characters. Kevin McKidd will reprise his role as the dedicated Dr. Owen Hunt, bringing his distinctive presence back to the Grey's Anatomy landscape. Kim Raver, who portrays the complex Dr. Teddy Altman, will add another layer of drama and emotion to the upcoming season.
Caterina Scorsone, known for her portrayal of the resilient Dr. Amelia Shepherd, will continue to captivate audiences with her compelling performance. Additionally, Camilla Luddington, who plays the determined and compassionate Dr. Jo Wilson, will bring her unique energy to the series once again.
The rising stars of the new generation are expected to introduce new dynamics to the ever-changing world of Grey's Anatomy
Season 19 introduced a fresh group of interns to Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital, and it's expected that they will continue their journey in Season 20. Harry Shum Jr. impressed viewers with his portrayal of Dr. Benson "Blue" Kwan, while Adelaide Kane's performance as Dr. Jules Millin showcased her talent and versatility.
Alexis Floyd, Niko Terho, and Midori Francis, who played Dr. Simone Griffiths, Dr. Lucas Adams, and Dr. Mika Yasuda, respectively, are also expected to return. These rising stars will undoubtedly bring new dynamics and intriguing storylines to the ever-evolving world of Grey's Anatomy.
Will Meredith Grey return?
One burning question remains: will Ellen Pompeo grace the screen once again as the iconic Dr. Meredith Grey? Pompeo bid farewell to the character in Season 19, but her role as executive producer and narrator has kept her connected to the show. But recent developments, including a cameo appearance in the Season 19 finale, have sparked speculation about a potential return.
While nothing has been confirmed, the door is left open for Pompeo to reprise her role, leaving fans hopeful for a reunion with their beloved character in Season 20.
