Grey's Anatomy fans have something to celebrate as a new set photo from season 20 reveals the return of Jessica Capshaw as Arizona Robbins. With the milestone twentieth installment just weeks away, the show is set to welcome back familiar faces and introduce some new characters as well.
Joining the ensemble cast are Parks and Recreation alum Natalie Morales and When They See Us actor Freddy Miyares. Additionally, Alex Landi will be reprising his role as Dr. Nico Kim. This exciting cast lineup promises an engaging and dramatic season ahead.
Capshaw, who played the beloved character Arizona, shared a photo on Instagram, giving fans a sneak peek of her return to Grey's Anatomy. It's unclear what kind of medical drama Arizona will be involved in, but the anticipation is growing among fans.
One Tree Hill alum Hilarie Burton, who portrayed Arizona's romantic interest, Dr. Lauren Boswell, left an amusing comment on Capshaw's post, writing, 'Girl. Meet you in the break room!' This playful comment sparked speculation about the possibility of a reunion between the two characters.
Arizona had a memorable exit from Grey's Anatomy during season 14. After surviving a plane crash, she is forced to amputate her leg. This decision ultimately leads to the breakdown of her relationship with Callie (Sara Ramirez), as Arizona blames her for the amputation. Their marriage deteriorates further, influenced by a miscarriage and infidelity.
Since leaving the show, Arizona has moved to New York and has not appeared in Grey's Anatomy since season 14. However, there have been hints that there may be room for her character's return in future seasons. Executive producers, including series creator Shonda Rhimes, have mentioned that both Arizona and April Kepner (played by Sarah Drew) could potentially make comebacks.
Grey's Anatomy season 20, though having fewer episodes due to the impact of Hollywood strikes on scheduling, promises to be a significant season. As the show reaches its twentieth-year milestone, fans can expect updates on various characters, including Callie, and learn whether the duo were able to mend their relationship.
Grey's Anatomy is widely considered one of the greatest television shows of our time, having won several awards and four Emmys. Its high-intensity medical drama revolves around the lives of Meredith Grey and her team of doctors at Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital. In their daily work, they face life-or-death decisions and find solace in their relationships with one another.
This compelling series has demonstrated that medicine and relationships are complex and cannot be defined in simple terms of black and white. Grey's Anatomy continues to captivate audiences with its emotional storytelling and compelling characters.
Make sure to mark your calendars for the season 20 premiere of Grey's Anatomy, which is scheduled to air on Thursday, March 14 at 9 p.m. ET on ABC. It's sure to be an exciting and emotionally-charged season that fans won't want to miss.
