The news follows an update from Grey’s Anatomy star Camilla Luddington, who confirmed earlier today that she had attended a table read for the next batch of episodes.

“I’m on my way to the table read for the new season and I don't know if you guys can see – well you can't – but it is raining in Los Angeles, which is really crazy…” she wrote.

What to Read Next

The 20th season will be the first not to feature Ellen Pompeo as a series regular, with the actor electing to take a step back from her role as the titular character.

“The show has been incredible to me and I’ve loved a lot of the experience. Listen, it’s just I've got to mix it up a little bit,” she said following her exit last year.

“I’m 53, my brain is like scrambled eggs. I've got to do something new or I’m literally going to turn into like, you can’t do the New York Times crossword puzzle every single day.

“I mean 19 years – that’s more than people keep their kids in their house, like people keep their kids in their house until they’re 18 and then they send them off to college, so this is like me going away to college.”

Grey's Anatomy and Station 19 air on Thursdays on ABC in the US. Both shows stream on Disney+ in the UK.
