Denzel Washington doesn't recall the heated exchange that Ellen Pompeo describes the pair having on the GreysAnatomy set when he guest-directed an episode, but says 'it's all good.'
Denzel Washington has responded to Ellen Pompeo's story regarding an argument between the two of them on the set of Grey's Anatomy. The medical drama has aired on ABC for 17 years, making it the longest-running scripted primetime series to be carried by the network.
While filming the season 12 episode, titled"The Sound of Silence," Pompeo and guest director Washington got into what she considered to be a heated argument. Portraying the show's central character, Meredith Grey, the actor has been important to its success and longevity over the years. On her podcast, Tell Me With Ellen Pompeo, she recalled a moment in which she improvised a line of dialogue during one of the scene's takes, yelling,"Look at me when you apologize.
The clash between the two creatives is not the first on-set dispute, but luckily, Pompeo stated that their passion ultimately only brought good to the final product, and that it was an amazing experience for her. Other controversies on the set of Grey's Anatomy, include the casting of Patrick Dempsey over Isaiah Washington, as well as Katherine Heigl's Emmy withdrawal and the supposed disconnect between her and then showrunner, Shonda Rhimes. There was also the matter of T.R.
Despite some of the drama and rumors surrounding the show, it still remains a television phenomenon, tracking 18 seasons and counting, and generating consistently high ratings. Grey's Anatomy season 18 premiered in September, with a renewal reportedly being considered by ABC. However, Pompeo has been open about ending Grey's rather soon.
