I added an interview Justin gave to magazine Télé DH. It’s an interview he gave in June 2014 while he was in Belgium as part of the ABC European Press tour, but it was only published recently.

The interview is in french so I added an english translation below. Keep in mind that the interview was given before he started shooting season 11 of ‘Grey’s Anatomy’.

“The end of Grey’s Anatomy doesn’t scare me!”

Interview with Justin Chambers, the seductive Dr. Alex Karev, who today serves as a survivor…

“I’m not afraid that the show will stop. I think that everything has an end. I don’t necessarily plan on doing this for the rest of my life!” A few months ago, in Brussels, we met Justin Chambers, who lends his features as the attractive, slightly mad dog, Dr. Alex Karev. A charming smile pasted on his lips at the end of his sentences, the actor has been present in the show since the first episode was still unaware that he would become … the survivor. But this possible fate didn’t seem to worry this father of a blossomed family too much…

“The creator of GA has always said that she wanted to go as far as ‘ER’… That is, until the fifteenth season. Obviously, it’s important to see how viewers react to each departure. But there is still so much story to tell with other interesting characters, I think it’s possible. It may well last until season 15. Me, I’m happy to be signed until season 12. I put money aside! (laughs) I can explore other things. I look forward to it, even if a bit scared!”

His secret to looking 30 years old while he’s 44?
“I’ve always looked younger. One day, I’m sure it will catch up with me! “

Are you satisfied with the development of your character, Alex Karev, over the last 10 years?
“Yes, he’s gone through so many things! The guy got shot, he almost died, he got married, his wife (Izzie) nearly died of cancer, he had a relationship with a schizophrenic person… We can say that he experienced quite a lot of ordeals! And now, I think he has found the person who suits him (Jo)… All of that is great to play.”

“I’m signed until season 12. I have put money aside. (laughs) I’m ready to explore other things… “

When you want your character to move in one direction or the other, can you make suggestions to the writer?
“Yes, of course! Sometimes they take our pinions… But often they don’t take them! (laughs) There are so many characters that one change can impact other characters. And then, it’s still fun for us to open up the script. We are the first viewers! In reading, we say: ‘What? But no, it’s not possible!’ But they know what they’re doing…”

Below is a new interview Justin gave to Télé Star while at the Monte Carlo Television Festival last year. Take into account that at the time Justin had wrapped season 10 and hadn’t started shooting season 11 yet.

The questions in the video are written in french, and since many fans might not know the language, I translated them.

➜ Télé Star met with Justin Chambers (Grey’s Anatomy)
➜ How will the relationship between Jo and Alex evolve?
➜ You have been on the show since the beginning. What makes you want to continue?
➜ And then, you have to feed your family of 5 children!
➜ Chyler Leigh left due to work schedules which interfered with her family life. How do you handle this?
➜ It’s hard to believe that you have a child in college!
➜ What did you think of the return of Isaiah Washington (Preston Burke)?
➜ So many characters have left the series. When receiving the script, do you check the end to see if your character didn’t die?
➜ Do you think Grey’s could last as long as ER?
➜ Are things different now that Shonda has several shows on TV?
➜ And you’re still not on Twitter!

★ Season 11 of Grey’s Anatomy has come to an end, and so has my weekly screen capping job. lol A couple of episode stills from the finale were released where we can (sort of) see Justin in them, and they have also been added to the gallery.

Last Tuesday (May 12), ABC presented its 2015/2016 TV show lineup in New York City for advertisers. Justin and the rest of his Grey’s Anatomy cast mates were on hand representing the show. I added photos of Justin on the red carpet, onstage at the end of the presentation, also at the ABC party.

  Justin isn’t in this video, but it’s a cute spoof of ‘How to Get Away With Murder’ and was the opening video of the ABC Upfront.

★ Grey’s Anatomy has officially been renewed for season 12. In fact, ABC Entertainment Group Chief, Paul Lee said he would like to see it “run for many, many years to come.” He also said that Grey’s creator and executive producer, Shonda Rhimes, has “great plans for next season and many years beyond.” Looks like Grey’s Anatomy might be around for quite a bit longer!
