So, when is Grey’s Anatomy Season 19 releasing? What is the plot? Who would return to reprise their roles? Continue reading to know further details.

Grey’s Anatomy Plot and Cast

Grey’s Anatomy season 18 left several unanswered questions so there is plenty of ground for season 19 to cover. Firstly, after the residency program was cut at Grey Sloan hospital, Miranda Bailey resigned and Richard Webber took leave to go on holiday with his wife Catherine. This saw Meredith choose to take over Bailey as Chief of Surgery so season 19 will see her in her new role.

That new role put her relationship with Dr. Nick Marsh on the line though, after she told him to go back to Minnesota without her. Despite chasing him, she got there too late, with Marsh having seemingly already left. Surely it’s not over for them though?

A couple of regulars have already been confirmed for Grey’s Anatomy season 19, including Ellen Pompeo as Dr. Meredith Grey, James Pickens Jr. as Dr. Richard Webber, and Chandra Wilson as Dr. Miranda Bailey. We would also expect the following to make a return- Kelly McCreary as Dr. Maggie Pierce, Caterina Scorsone as Dr. Amelia Shepherd, Camilla Luddington as Dr. Jo Wilson, Jake Borelli as Dr. Levi Schmitt, Chris Carmack as Link, Anthony Hill as Dr. Winston Ndugu.

Grey’s Anatomy Season 19 Release Date

The 19th season was renewed On January 10, 2022. Now, it has been confirmed Grey’s Anatomy season 19 will premiere in the US on 6 October 2022. We expect around the 20 episodes for season 19 too, though nothing is confirmed as yet.

For those in the US, Grey’s Anatomy season 19 will be available on ABC when it arrives. It will also likely stream on Hulu as season 18 did. For those in the UK, Grey’s Anatomy season 19 will likely come to Sky Witness when it lands. You’ll therefore be able to watch them with a Sky or Now subscription. Nothing is confirmed on the UK side as yet though.
