Grey’s Anatomy season 20 cast updates: Is anyone leaving Grey’s?

If there is one thing that Grey’s Anatomy fans have gotten used to over the years, it’s having to say goodbye to characters they know and love.

Over the years, Grey’s Anatomy has also welcomed a slew of fresh talent to the cast. In the nineteenth season, the show experienced a major overhaul, with several mainstays like Ellen Pompeo and Kelly McCreary departing, while newcomers like Harry Shum Jr., Adelaide Kane, Alexis Floyd, Niko Terho, and Midori Francis joined the ensemble. This revitalization injected new energy into the series and introduced audiences to a fresh batch of compelling characters.

These cast shakeups have played a pivotal role in keeping the show engaging and unpredictable, ensuring its continued success and loyal fanbase. They also tend to make fans very eager to know who is sticking around and who could be the latest in the ever-growing list to leave the show.
