The next Grey’s Anatomy spin-off has its lead actress.

Karla Souza, seen in How to Get Away with Murder, has landed the lead role in this new medical series, which will take place in a small town in West Texas.

Announced last May by ABC, this new project will move away from the corridors of Gray Sloan Memorial Hospital in Seattle to follow the daily life of a medical team in a rural health center, a last resort for the inhabitants of this isolated region. The official synopsis promises “an intense drama around a team working in a rural medical center in West Texas, the last place to find care before miles of desert.”

Karla Souza will play Dr. Carolina “Lina” Hall, described as “a tormented and cynical doctor who runs a medical center in a small West Texas town.”

A return to the ABC and Shondaland family for the Mexican actress, who played Laurel Castillo during six seasons of How to Get Away with Murder, the series hosted by Viola Davis. She was also in the cast of the sitcom Home Economics, which aired for three seasons.

This project will constitute the third television spin-off of Grey’s Anatomy, after Private Practice and Station 19, which lasted six and seven seasons respectively. A digital series, Grey’s Anatomy: B-Team, was also broadcast on the ABC website in 2018.

Initially planned for the 2026-2027 television season, this new series was ultimately pushed back to 2027-2028 due to a financing problem.
