Four of Grey’s Anatomy‘s current docs will continue to keep watch over the hospital. Kevin McKidd (Owen Hunt), Justin Chambers (Alex Karev), Chandra Wilson (Miranda Bailey) and James Pickens, Jr. (Richard Webber) have inked new contracts with the ABC drama that will keep them in scrubs at least through the upcoming 13th season.
Chambers previously hinted at nearing a new deal back in March, while Kevin McKidd was optimistic about his future as Owen. Jessica Capshaw settled her own business a year ago, signing a multi-year deal with the stalwart medical drama, which this season was broadcast TV’s No. 3-rated drama, trailing only Empire and The X-Files.
“I don’t see any reason why [a new deal] wouldn’t happen,” McKidd said in January. News of the quartet’s new contracts comes on the heels of leading lady Ellen Pompeo’s own successful renegotiation. It also follows the departure of fellow Grey’s vet Sara Ramirez.
