‘Grey’s Anatomy’ Stars Jessica Capshaw And Sarah Drew To Exit Show
Written by broebling on March 9, 2018
Two of fictional Grey-Sloan Memorial Hospital’s longest-serving doctors are leaving the hit ABC show “Grey’s Anatomy.” Stars Jessica Capshaw, who plays Dr. Arizona Robbins, and Sarah Drew, known as Dr. April Kepner, are leaving the medical drama in a major casting shake-up. Reports are that producers made the decision despite the fact that ABC hasn’t renewed the show yet for a fifteenth season. Drew got emotional in a statement on Twitter that suggested the news took her by surprise. Capshaw, too, expressed her sadness at saying goodbye to her character. Drew has been playing April for nine seasons, while Capshaw has been on the show for ten. Creator and executive producer Shonda Rhimes admitted she’ll have trouble writing off the characters, but praised Capshaw and Drew for bringing their roles to life.
