3 New Recurring Characters
Holy smokes. Grey's news has gone from a drought to a steady stream this week.
TV Guide and the Hollywood Reporter have the scoop on three new docs who'll be popping up early this season in multiple episodes. Let's hear your theories in the comments!
Nora Zehetner and Robert Baker Join Grey's Anatomy by Matt Webb Mitovich
It's a prescription for professional rivalry when Grey's Anatomy introduces a trio of new doctors during its sixth season.
Nora Zehetner and Robert Baker have been cast as two of the recurring residents surfacing in Episode 5, TVGuideMagazine.com has learned exclusively. Zehetner (familiar to TV fans from her runs on Heroes and Everwood) will play a doc described by a source as "feisty, very smart and competitive." As such, she is poised to butt heads with at least one member of Meredith Grey's posse. Baker, from The CW's short-lived Valentine, has been cast as the seemingly nicest of the new residents, who may be hiding a nastier side.
The casting of these recurring players comes as Grey's prepares to bid adieu to T.R. Knight's George (in the two-hour season opener) and accomodate Ellen Pompeo's maternity leave. But the precise why of the docs' arrival is the big mystery here-and one that series boss Shonda Rhimes isn't willing to reveal.
Scrubbing in alongside Zehetner and Baker will be Jesse Williams, playing a charismatic caregiver. Williams' credits include The N's Beyond the Break and the upcoming Joss Whedon thriller "The Cabin in the Woods."
And more on Jesse Williams...

Jesse Williams has been cast in a multiepisode arc on ABC's "Grey's Anatomy."

Williams, best known for his role in "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2" and ABC Family's "Greek," next stars in MGM's "The Cabin in the Woods," directed by Drew Goddard and written by Goddard and Joss Whedon, and in director Antoine Fuqua's "Brooklyn's Finest."
