One of "Grey’s Anatomy‘s" most celebrated behind-the-scenes MVPs is checking back in. TVLine has confirmed that Krista Vernoff — who served as head writer and exec producer during the ABC medical drama’s first seven seasons, earning multiple Emmy nominations in the process — is returning for the series’ upcoming 14th season.
Vernoff joins the showrunning team of Shonda Rhimes and Betsy Beers as part of a new overall deal with ABC Studios. Additionally, she penned the two-hour Season 14 premiere, “Break Down the House,” which is slated to air on Sept. 28 at 9/8c.
Vernoff is filling the void left by longtime "Grey’s" writer/EP/co-showunner Stacy McKee, who is segueing to the new firefighter-themed spin-off.
Since exiting "Grey’s" in 2011, Vernoff served as a consulting producer on the final two seasons of sister series "Private Practice" before jumping to Showtime’s "Shameless" as a writer/EP.
