Geena Davis is going to be scrubbing in at Grey-
Sloan Memorial!
The Oscar winner has booked a major guest arc on
the upcoming 11th season of Grey's Anatomy, the
actress' rep and ABC confirmed Friday to E! News.
While she starred in the 2012 A&E miniseries
Coma, a remake of the chilling 1978 movie of the
same name, this marks Davis' return to a network
series since she starred on the well-received yet
short-lived Commander in Chief.
We knew that Shonda Rhimes would know how to
shake things up now that Sandra Oh has left the
building!
Davis will play--surprise, surprise--a surgeon on
the still-chugging medical drama, but no other
details were forthcoming.
The 58-year-old actress, who received an Emmy
nomination for playing U.S. President Mackenzie
Allen on Commander in Chief, was most recently
in Lake Bell's feature directorial debut, In a
World..., and has the indie comedy Me Him Her in
the works.
Also quite notably, Davis and her partner in Oscar-
nominated crime, Susan Sarandon, channeled
Thelma & Louise this year when the stunning
redheads posed for another epic selfie, 23 years
after their characters' impromptu Polaroid left a
lasting impression.
Meanwhile, Grey's Anatomy returns to ABC in
September, and presumably Ellen Pompeo's
Meredith will be dealing with both McDreamy's
D.C. job offer and a half-sister she'll be meeting
any day now.
Geena Davis had better buckle her seatbelt--plot
bumps ahead.
