UNITED STATES – JANUARY 23: GREY’S ANATOMY – “Drowning on Dry Land” – “Grey’s Anatomy’s” three-episode story arc continues with a part two that will challenge the interns of Seattle Grace — and “Grey’s” fans as well — like never before, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 15 (9:00-10:01 p.m., ET) on the Disney General Entertainment Content via Getty Images Television Network. Elizabeth Reaser (Independent Spirit Award nominee for “Sweet Land”) guest stars as a patient over multiple episodes. (Photo by Craig Sjodin/Disney General Entertainment Content via Getty Images)
GREY’S ANATOMY is bringing back a face from the past: Kali Rocha, who played Dr. Sydney Heron in eight episodes, will return for season 21, Give Me My Remote has confirmed. Rocha will appear in three episodes.
Sydney was first brought in during season 2 as a stand-in for Bailey (Chandra Wilson) while she was out on maternity leave. (Ellen Pompeo’s Meredith was one of the interns Sydney was in charge of.) Rocha then appeared in a handful of season 3 and 4 episodes. Her last appearance on the show was in season 4’s “Forever Young.”
The return comes as the ABC medical drama is set to celebrate its 20th anniversary (on March 27). The upcoming season will also see the return of former regular Jason George, who had moved over to spinoff STATION 19 for the past seven seasons, a new time slot (Thursdays at 10/9c), and Pompeo set to appear in 7-14 installments of the show. (The season is set to be 18 episodes.)
Deadline was first to report the casting.
