Will Katherine Heigl Leave ‘Grey’s Anatomy’
Earlier this week Katherine Heigl chose to decline a nomination for an Emmy Award. Since then there have been many rumors that have been floating on the internet claiming that the young actress will be leaving ‘Grey’s Anatomy’.
She took her name out for this year’s Emmy race because she felt her character, Dr. Izzie Stevens, had not been given adequate material. Recently, Heigl signed on to star in and produce a movie based on the book “Escape” by Carolyn Jessop, the former Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints member who fled the polygamous sect and helped convict leader Warren Jeffs.
While it is not unusual for TV stars to film movies during hiatus, insiders wonder if the deal following closely on the heels of her Emmy snub indicates that Heigl soon will be leaving the show, the New York Post reported.
