An article came out yesterday about the future of Grey’s Anatomy and Shonda Rhimes name-dropped Justin. I’ll only post the paragraph where he is specifically mentioned but the rest of the article can be read at TV Guide Magazine.

And with rumors that Patrick, too, may want out when his contract is up, one actor is already campaigning hard to be Lexie’s Lil’ McDreamy: Jesse Williams (Jackson). “That’s because those two get along like gangbusters,” says Rhimes. “But I think Justin [Chambers] would fight him for that, because he wants the exact same thing.”

Here’s a new sneak peek from this week’s episode of Grey’s Anatomy featuring Justin:

Promotional stills for episode 6.22 of Grey’s Anatomy – “Shiny Happy People” have also been added. This episode airs May 13th and it is the last one before the 2 hour season finale on May 20th.

** UPDATE ** – 6 more stills added

6.22 – Shiny Happy People

An elderly patient admitted into the E.R. for a heart condition sees a familiar face, a long lost love who happens to be in the E.R. as well for a fractured arm, and the staff find themselves caught up in their love story. Meanwhile, Karev treats a troubled teenage patient (guest star Demi Lovato) whose parents brought her in for schizophrenia, and Meredith can’t help but tell Cristina about her suspicions of Owen — which inevitably messes with Cristina’s head.

ABC released the promotional stills for episode 6.21 of Grey’s Anatomy titled “How Insensitive.” I’ve added the stills to the gallery and below is the description for the episode airing on May 6th.

6.21 – How Insensitive

Bailey preps the team with mandatory sensitivity training prior to admitting a 700-pound patient with compounded medical issues, and the case proves to be challenging in every sense of the word. Meanwhile Derek has to come face to face with a former patient’s husband in a wrongful death deposition, and spending time with a heart patient’s daughter opens up some old wounds for Cristina.

There’s a new article up at TV Guide Magazine with quotes from Justin. There are a few spoilers in the article about what’s coming up for Alex Karev on the show but here’s the bit about Justin’s life and his upcoming movie:

With Isaiah Washington and T.R. Knight also gone, and Ellen Pompeo saying she’ll be next, Justin’s one of the few remaining originals who’s enthusiastic about signing on for more seasons when his contract comes up for renewal next year. Turning the big 4-0 in July, he plans to spend his hiatus in Los Angeles starring in a movie opposite Chyler, who’s also producing the indie thriller with her husband, Nathan West. “With five kids, I don’t want to be traveling the world from one film to the next,” says Justin. “I want to stay here and watch my kids grow up. Grey’s Anatomy is a good job for my lifestyle. I like it here.” Hear that, Heigl? That’s what gratitude sounds like!

Now we have an idea what type of movie Justin will be shooting this summer. 😉

Interesting episode for Alex this week and it was good to finally meet some of his family. Justin did great (as always 😉 ) and there are even mentions in the press about his portrayal of Alex today:

The way Justin Chambers plays Alex has always been nicely restrained — he’s never made Alex a great guy, or a guy with great judgment. Even the parts of Alex that are capable of kindness always act on it uncomfortably.

It’s a really nice bit, and Justin Chambers does a great job of staying understated while playing a whole lot of layers of emotion. He’s terrific in this episode, and I’m glad we get to see a little of his range aside from having to take care of Izzie.

I added screencaps from the episode to the gallery already. The next original episode of Grey’s Anatomy airs on April 29th.

6.19 – Sympathy For The Parents

Entertainment Tonight ran a small clip yesterday with Justin in his scrubs on the Grey’s set and he was commenting on Katherine Heigl having left the show. What he said is at the ET site:

ET has the first words from Katherine Heigl’s TV husband Justin Chambers since she confirmed that Izzy’s out!

“Katherine is very much loved,” Justin tells ET behind the scenes. “She’s a huge part of the show’s success.”

Before he was called back to the set for doctor duty, he added: “She’s always in our hearts and Izzy will always be a huge benefactor to the show.”

I replaced the stills from episode 6.19 with high quality versions. Those can be seen here –> 6.19 – Sympathy for the Parents

There’s a brief mention in the press, not directly about Justin but related in a way. Actress/singer Demi Lovato is currently filming an episode of Grey’s Anatomy (set to air in May) where she will be playing Alex’s patient.

Demi Lovato is heading to Grey’s Anatomy for May sweeps, TVGuide.com has confirmed.

The 17-year-old Disney star (Sonny With a Chance) will guest-star as a possibly schizophrenic patient being treated by Alex Karev (Justin Chambers).

ABC has also released the sneak peeks for Thursday’s episode where we’ll finally meet Alex’s brother. The 2 sneak peeks featuring Justin are below the other 2 sneak peeks are HERE and HERE

I’ve got to get back to updating more often because there’s way too many things sitting on my HD waiting to be added. 😕
I added a few candids of Justin having lunch yesterday in West Hollywood. Those can be seen at the following link:

West Hollywood – February 18

Grey’s Anatomy now. Screencaps from this week’s episode of the show are now up:

6.15 – The Time Warp

Next week ABC will be airing a rerun (episode 6.06 “I Saw What I Saw”) and on March 4th airs the new episode “Perfect Little Accident”. One still from that episode has been released featuring Justin and I added it to the gallery.
