“Those conversations haven’t quite started yet. I believe that there’s something in place [from her previous deal with ABC] for her already, but I’m not completely aware of it. My feeling is that it would probably be around the same amount as this season, and it also just depends on her schedule.”
What Has Ellen Pompeo Done After Leaving ‘Grey’s Anatomy’?
llen Pompeo was the leading lady for the medical series for a whopping 19 seasons and over 400 episodes. So she probably took a little rest after exiting the long-running series. However, she was back on a TV project pretty soon and, again, in a leading role: she is in the main cast of Good American Family, an upcoming Hulu thriller series about a family who goes through a terrible ordeal after adopting what they believed was a child with dwarfism.
Apart from that, Pompeo continues to narrate Grey’s Anatomy episodes, meaning that fans haven’t completely said goodbye to her. Additionally, she serves as executive producer of the series, meaning that she still has a say about what happens inside the walls of Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital. However, depending on which projects Pompeo gets involved with in the future, there is a chance that fitting Grey’s Anatomy guest participations becomes more difficult when the schedules don’t match.
ABC rolls out new episodes from Grey’s Anatomy on Thursdays. You can also stream the entire series on Hulu.
