In her newly free time she will be producing and starring in an as yet untitled limited series for Hulu.
In an interview with our sister site Deadline watch below Pomeo assured fans that Greys is going to be just fine without me adding. I am going to always be a part of that show. I am an executive producer. I spent two decades of my career on Greys its my heart and soul. I will never truly be gone as long as its on the air.
Regarding her new Hulu series, which was inspired by the true story of a Midwestern couple who adopts what they believe is an 8-year-old girl with a rare form of dwarfism, Pompeo says Hopefully Greys fans will watch. I know theres no guarantee of that. But I am going to put the same heart and passion into that. Its just eight little episodes so it would not take too much of your time.To help fill the looming Meredith void Greys is introducing a slew of rookies. We have these new amazing interns co star Kevin McKidd recently enthused adding that those incoming doctors will be pumping new blood in the show.
