“The characters of Arizona and April are permanently woven into the fabric of Grey’s Anatomy thanks to the extraordinary work of Jessica Capshaw and Sarah Drew,” Vernoff said in a statement.
Sarah Drew and Jessica Capshaw will be exiting the Shondaland drama when this season wraps up, Deadline reports.
Grey’s Anatomy is about to lose two of its main characters after Season 14.
Arizona (Capshaw) first appeared in Season 5 as a surgery fellow in Seattle Grace pediatric surgery department before joining the series full-time.
