Grey's Anatomy continues to attract audiences by introducing new characters and new storylines. On April 01, 2025, Deadline announced that Trevor Jackson signed up to appear as a recurring character in Grey's Anatomy. He will portray an attractive, well-educated, yet arrogant man approaching 30 and has just relocated to Seattle. He will debut in the penultimate episode of season 21, which will air on May 8, 2025.

Jackson could be promoted to a regular on the show in season 22 if the series gets renewed. This follows recent exits by other actors on the show, which could open slots in the main cast.

According to Deadline, Trevor Jackson could join the show's regular cast in season 22 if Grey's Anatomy is renewed. Since characters Mika and Levi are exiting the show, Jackson's character could replace them in one of those spots, considering he makes a lasting impression. His previous experience in ensemble shows, particularly his work on Grown-ish, could give him a chance to become a regular on the show.

According to an article published in Screen Rant on April 02, 2025, Grey's Anatomy continues to reinvent itself with new characters and captivating storylines, hooking its audience every season. Through its continued power to adapt, the show will likely reach season 22.
