It’s been a little over a year since he last set foot in Seattle…

A former doc returning to Grey’s Anatomy.

The new teaser for episode 4 of season 22 announces the presence of Jackson Avery, played by Jesse Williams, who will make his big comeback on October 30 on the American channel ABC (see below).

He who left the main cast at the end of season 17 has already made a few occasional reappearances since his departure. This episode will also mark his fourth participation as a guest star, after a last appearance during the launch of season 21, in September 2024.

The short clip revealed shows Avery yelling at Meredith. Because he’s always the boss, and he bluntly lectures his former girlfriend, explaining to her that, as she doesn’t publish anything, her research is useless… Not wrong.
