As of October 2025, the hit medical drama Grey's Anatomy is set to welcome back a familiar face - Jesse Williams as Dr. Jackson Avery. This comes after a major character death and some cast hiatuses on the show.

While the couple is unsure about Jo's condition, the sneak peek has left fans eagerly anticipating the upcoming developments.
Williams, who played Jackson for over a decade, previously reprised the role in season 21 alongside his on-screen love interest, Sarah Drew as Dr. April Kepner. The characters of April and Arizona Robbins, played by Jessica Capshaw, were praised for being "permanently woven into the fabric of Grey's Anatomy" by the show's former showrunner Krista Vernoff.
With the return of Jackson and the ongoing storylines, Grey's Anatomy continues to captivate its loyal audience and keep them guessing about what's in store for their favorite characters.
