The latest shocking Grey's Anatomy cast exit cuts deep.

After playing Dr. Jackson Avery on the popular medical drama for over a decade, actor Jesse Williams will be leaving Grey's Anatomy ahead of the season 17 finale this spring. According to Deadline, the last episode for Jesse's character will air on May 20.

"Jesse Williams is an extraordinary artist and activist. Watching his evolution these past 11 years both on screen and off has been a true gift," Greys Anatomy executive producer and showrunner Krista Vernoff told Deadline in a statement. "Jesse brings so much heart, such depth of care, and so much intelligence to his work. We will miss Jesse terribly and we will miss Jackson Avery played to perfection for so many years."

The fans will also surely miss seeing the Chief of Plastic Surgery every Thursday night. To announce his exit from the series, Jesse posted screenshots of the Deadline report along with a photo of himself in character to his Instagram page. His caption for the heartbreaking post simply read: "Feels ..."

Immediately, Grey's fans flooded the comment section. "Im not accepting your resignation !! ," one fan wrote. "Cant believe youre leaving us," another said. "Crying on the floor as we speak," someone else said.

Meanwhile, several of Jesse's cast members also had things to say. "Congrats my man! What an awesome run. The water is warm out here looking forward to whats next. ," Giacomo Gianniotti, who recently left the series this year as well, wrote. "Love You. Mama is lost without you," Debbie Allen, who plays Jackson's mother Catherine on the show, said.

What's more, when the Twitter page for Grey's Anatomy tweeted out a gif of Jackson crying, Ellen Pompeo, a.k.a. Meredith Grey herself, responded, "Yeah I know the feeling @iJesseWilliams ."

Since news about Jesse leaving broke last week, the actor hasn't provided a clear reason for departing the series. That said, the Deadline report does indicate that Jesse's latest two-year contract was coming up at the end of the current season. Jesse had first joined way back in 2009 and was promoted to a series regular following season 6.

Jesse, like his character, will be moving onto different projects. When he signed his new contract in 2019, he reportedly "scaled back duties" on Grey's after preparing to make his Broadway debut for the revival of Richard Greenbergs Take Me Out. Since the project was delayed by the pandemic, the show is expected to open in early 2022.

His IMDB page also notes that Jesse is set to act in the upcoming films Team Joy (he'll also be a producer) and Marked Man.

Reflecting on his Grey's run, Jesse made it clear that he has enjoyed his time on the series, which tells us he is likely leaving on good terms.

"I will forever be grateful for the boundless opportunities provided me by Shonda [Rhimes], the network, studio, fellow castmates, our incredible crew, Krista, Ellen, and Debbie," Jesse said in a statement to Deadline. "As an actor, director, and person, I have been obscenely lucky to learn so much from so many, and I thank our beautiful fans, who breathe so much energy and appreciation into our shared worlds. The experience and endurance born of creating nearly 300 hours of leading global television is a gift Ill carry always. I am immensely proud of our work, our impact, and to be moving forward with so many tools, opportunities, allies, and dear friends."

Spiral Director Talks the Anatomy of a Saw Trap and Cutting a Device for Being "Too Gnarly" – ComicBook.com

Fans of the Saw franchise will tell you that what keeps them coming back for sequels is the ever-evolving plot full of twists and turns that keep you guessing until its final moments, but another key component which much of the general public has latched onto is its gruesome and violent traps, which are once again on display in Spiral: From the Book of Saw. Director Darren Lynn Bousman is no stranger to Saw traps, having directed three previous installments, with Bousman recently detailing that, while the series is known for its carnage, the traps play only a small role in developing the narrative and the attention the production pays to making sure the fictional devices would be just as brutal in real life. Additionally, he confirmed that one trap was so brutal that it had to be cut from the movie. Spiral: From the Book of Saw hits theaters on May 14th.

"To be inventive and to have it fit the story, because it's easy to think of ways to kills people, but to think of ways to kill people that are based in their character," Bousman shared with ComicBook.com about developing the devices. "The traps go through this evolution, they start off as an idea. When you read the script, it's really funny, when you read the script, it doesn't say what the trap is the first time. It'll say, 'Insert trap here,' and then we'll move on, 'Insert trap here.' And throughout the preproduction process, we figure out what that trap is. So, for example, the first scene in the movie, the tongue trap, that just said, 'Bos trap goes here,' and we sit down and figure out what that trap is. So we knew that he lied under oath, 'Okay, he lies, how do you lie? You lie with your mouth, so let's do something with the mouth. Okay, we've already done the headtrap, so we can't do that, so let's remove the tongue.'"

He continued, "Originally, it was fishhooks in the tongue. For me, the traps have to work the way we show them to, so if a guy is on a ladder and jumps off with fishhooks, all it's gonna do is tear the tongue and rip through it, it's not gonna tear it out. So we're like, 'How do we tear the tongue out?' We go through this crazy process, and then they go to engineers, literal engineers, to figure out would this really work. And one of my favorite things, and I hope it makes the DVD, are the tests that the effects house and the engineering house where they actually do it."

A criminal mastermind unleashes a twisted form of justice in Spiral, the terrifying new chapter from the book of Saw. Working in the shadow of his father, an esteemed police veteran (Samuel L. Jackson), brash Detective Ezekiel "Zeke" Banks (Chris Rock) and his rookie partner (Max Minghella) take charge of a grisly investigation into murders that are eerily reminiscent of the citys gruesome past. Unwittingly entrapped in a deepening mystery, Zeke finds himself at the center of the killers morbid game.

With this being the first entry into the series since 2017's Jigsaw, Bousman knew he had to take the franchise to new heights, though fans will have to wait to find out what plan was too brutal even for Spiral.

"This is funny, and I might get in trouble for saying this, and I hope I don't, there was a trap that was cut out of the movie for being too gnarly that we actually shot," the filmmaker confirmed. "The traps are the most complicated part of the franchise at this point. We've killed so many people in so many different ways, the moment we think of a trap, I think, 'Oh, this is awesome,' and they're like, 'No, we did that in Saw V,' 'Oh, but what about...?' 'No, that was in Saw VIII,' and I'm just like, 'Goddammit.'"

Check out Spiral: From the Book of Saw only in theaters on May 14th.

Patrick Dempsey on Returning to Greys Anatomy and How Television Can Be Healing – Hollywood Reporter

I didnt realize I was the first brand ambassador. That was news to me, Patrick Dempsey told The Hollywood Reporter during an interview about that new gig as the face for Porsche Design eyewear. While he may have been surprised by the milestone, its not a shock considering the 55-year-olds long-standing relationship with Porsche as one of the brands veteran drivers, a co-owner of a racing team and as someone who has stood on the podium hoisting a trophy at the iconic 24 Hours of Le Mans race.

He jokes that hes taking full advantage of his new status, however. When someone comes up to me and says, I love your glasses, I can just give them to people. Its the greatest, he says. Thats what it means to be an ambassador, youre bringing your heart and your soul and your passion into sharing it. Its an honor. Following a global virtual launch event, Dempsey spoke with THR about his favorite pair from the new Porsche Design collection, how it felt to return to Greys Anatomy last fall and what hes learned about himself during the pandemic.

Porsche Design Group CEO Jan Becker said it was your personality and your lifestyle that made this partnership work. How would you describe your personality and lifestyle?

I really love the [Porsche] lifestyle. Its the aspiration of what they are putting out there. Ive always loved it since I was a little kid. A lot of positive accomplishments have come through my collaboration and efforts with Porsche, like racing at Le Mans and being able to do an event like that as an amateur driver. It took about 10 years to get to that goal and achieve it with their support. There was a sort of systematic approach laid out like, OK, here are your strengths, here are your weaknesses, were going to work on developing your weaknesses and were going to do it in a good step-by-step process. That taught me a lot about how to be a better actor, a better person and a better man.

You said you fell in love with Porsche after seeing a poster on your friends wall the night before a ski race. From skiing to racing to cycling were you a daredevil straight out of the gate?

Yeah. Thats all I wanted to do as a kid, to be a ski racer. I wanted to be an Olympian. I wanted to be Ingemar Stenmark or like a Lindsey Vonn, Mikaela Shiffrin type of skier I wanted to be at that level. But where I grew up in a small town in Maine it was the hotbed for the new Vaudevillian group and they recruited me and I ran off with a circus. I was never a good student. I was always struggling. My heart was always in being an athlete and being a competitor. Ive always sort of felt slightly out of place in Hollywood, and I feel much more at home around athletes and within the racing community. Thats where I start to thrive and wake up.

What is it about Porsche that sets it above the rest?

Its a luxury brand, but its also an accessible one. You can get a car or even a used one thats relatively affordable, considering. We can all have that experience for the most part, and for me, to be able to [drive] at the highest level with them is a dream come true. Ive dreamt about it since I was a little kid, and to be able to realize it its transformative. Its still a family-owned company. I have a relationship with Dr. [Wolfgang] Porsche. Once youre in the family, you have to perform, you have to get results, but they help you. Once you do it, youre in, but you have to remain committed.

Its really been nice because Michael Fassbender is now racing and his goal is to get to Le Mans. When I saw him get involved, I was like, OK, now we passed the flint to the next person to go on that dream. And, as part of that team, its important that you support them. Thats the thing I learned the most is staying humble and working as a team to accomplish the goal. That really helps me in Hollywood a lot, by understanding that mentality and bringing that kind of ethic and approach to filmmaking and to my work. In sense, Ive done that. Ive changed as a person in, I think, in a positive way that keeps me wanting to grow and change.

What sparked that for you?

To be on the podium at Le Mans its hard to put into words. I mean, I sacrificed a lot to get there. Sometimes when you have a goal, you have to sacrifice. My goal was to get on the podium, and Porsches belief in me and their support allowed me to achieve that goal. I remember going there, I think it was in 2008 or 2009, I had a magical feeling walking around the paddock area, and to be there with an iconic brand like Porsche, which is really made its name at Le Mans, to be able to do that was really special. It was like a Hollywood movie.

Youve mentioned goals a couple of times, Im curious, what is the next one? What do you still want to accomplish?

To be able to bring the quality of the Le Mans experience in front of the camera. Ive not done that yet, where everything comes together. Whether its a film, as a director or [a performance] to bring that level in Hollywood that matches the Porsche mentality for me. I hope Im being clear on that but its something I was thinking about while watching the [Oscars]. Tyler Perrys speech really moved me as well, about coming to the center. How do we come to the center and stop divisiveness? How can you find a role that brings all of that together, where its inspiring, its entertaining and its healing but not preachy. Something that brings people together. Thats the next thing I want to try to find. And hopefully I can find a director whos going to believe in me and support me like Porsche has.

What did you think of the Oscars?

I have to tell you, the venue was great. I loved the venue. It gave it a sense of old Hollywood and had an intimate feel that made me flash back to the early days. There were a lot of positive messages, and I know a lot of people are going to judge it. But for me, when Tyler Perry said to come to the center, that has really stuck with me. I want to work with that man; he is an exceptional human being. I loved the story about his mother and how he urged compassion and empathy. I mean, thats what we need in society. We have to stop judging each other on how we look, but who are we inside, and meet people there with our hearts.

You just returned from Rome filming the second season of your show Devils. How was filming amid all the COVID protocols?

The procedures over there are really great. Theyre really rigorous in testing; we were tested every other day. We had people on set to make sure everyone was wearing masks. Everybody complies. Its not political at all when it comes to masks. They dont have the level of vaccine distribution that we do here, so were very fortunate. Im going to get my vaccine tomorrow and Im going to fly back to Europe to do the Enchanted sequel [Disenchanted]. But my experience in Rome was a really amazing experience. On that project, I play a very different character [for me], a darker character. The show addresses the abuse of capitalism, the lack of sustainability, and this year, its all about AI and controlling data and its information, in a fictional way. Were also using the same format we did during season one: real, actual footage. We talk about Bitcoin, COVID, the election and all of that. We talk about the war over who is controlling data and how theyre manipulating us, how they follow us. Its fun, educational and entertaining, hopefully. And I love working in Rome.

You were a part of spreading positive safety messages with COVID thanks to your return to Greys Anatomy, which was so well received. How has it felt to field all the fan reactions over the past few months?

When I reached out, Ellen and I went for a long walk asked ourselves, How can we do something positive? During the pandemic, you feel so helpless and everything was being politicized over mask-wearing. We just thought, well, why dont we do something. Then [showrunner Krista Vernoff] had an idea and Ellen asked, Would you come back? She laid out the storyline and I just said, Oh, thats brilliant. I have to do that. It was just really healing for all of us and, I think, for the fans as well. They were such a beloved couple, and people want to believe in love. They want to believe that theyre not alone in the world and that they have angels taking care of them. It was a great message. I was in Rome [when it aired] and people just went crazy and even here too, I think its been very positive. Thats the great thing about entertainment: It has a healing property if we tell the right stories.

The pandemic has led so many people to shift their priorities or rededicate to things they already knew were important. What have you learned about yourself during this time?I need less, certainly, and the most important thing is family and having loved ones around you. We need much more compassion and more people leading with their hearts. I think the problem with society is weve lost our compassion. People are so afraid now. So how do we take fear out of it? Thats what leadership has to bring forward compassionate, empathetic leadership, not divisive leadership. Youve seen where that takes us, and its not a healthy, sustainable place.

Back to Porsche eyewear. As best you can, what does it feel like to put on the glasses, drive your Porsche down PCH?

I had this epic journey coming home [from Rome]. It took 48 hours because of a terrible storm in Atlanta and both of my flights were canceled. There was a tornado or hurricane that came through and we had to come back because something hit the plane. I was stuck in a hotel room and Im like, OK, theres a message here somewhere. This is time to decompress. Once I finally arrived to California, I didnt turn the news on. I just got in my car and drove [to the studio today], it was fun to look at the ocean and enjoy the car, like a quiet, rolling meditation. My eyes were burning so I put the shades on as the light was coming up and I could see things in detail. Its like I had a different vision, in a sense. I know it all sounds kind of crazy, but it was really nice. It was calming. I was really grateful for everything that I have and thats what I remembered gratitude. The eyewear is so well made and theres so much heart, thought, precision and emotion that goes into the craftsmanship.

Do you have a favorite pair?

No, but whats so fun now is that I get to experiment and try on all of them to find the right size and fit and style. I like [the clear glasses] because I cant see anything when Im reading anymore. Its lightweight, and it doesnt feel like I have anything on. Also, what I love is because Im the ambassador, Im allotted a certain amount. When someone comes up to me and says, I love your glasses, I can just give them to people. Its the greatest. I can go back to them and say, I need a few more pairs. Its the best experience, like a true ambassador. Thats what it means to be an ambassador, youre bringing your heart and your soul and your passion into sharing it. Its an honor.

If I print this, youre going to have a lot of people coming up to you and asking for the sunglasses.

Well, then Ive got to tell Porsche to send me some more glasses.

Spoilers ahead from Season 17, Episode 13 Good as Hell of Greys Anatomy.

On the latest episode of Greys Anatomy, fans had to say goodbye to Derek Shepherd once again, as Merediths beach fantasy came to an end as a result of her starting to recover from her battle with COVID-19.

‘Grey’s Anatomy’: The ‘Fake’ American Accent That Bothers Fans the Most – Showbiz Cheat Sheet

There are a lot of interns and doctors who have made their way through the doors of Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital in Greys Anatomy over the last decade or more, meaning there are several different personalities, accents, and beliefs introduced to fans. However, not all of them have become highly favored by viewers, especially one accent in particular.

Since she arrived at Greys in 2012, fans have always loved the concept of Jos character and her resilience, but they are not impressed with her fake American accent.

RELATED: Greys Anatomy: Camilla Luddington Thanks Fans For the Jo Love on Her Characters Anniversary

The up-and-coming star has been in the limelight since she entered Greys in 2012, but she has also had some memorable performances as Lara Croft in Tomb Raider and Rise of the Tomb Raider, and as Zatanna in the Justice League Dark.

Although Luddington is mostly known for her fictional American character Jo, she is actually British (accent and all!) in real life. Dual citizenship aside, The Famous People reports that she was born in Ascot, Berkshire, England, and didnt make her way to American until she moved to Austin, Texas as a teenager.

RELATED: Greys Anatomy Showrunner Says It Would Have Been Dull to Keep Jo and Alex Together

On Greys Anatomy, Luddingtons character is an attending general surgeon at Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital. Jo has a heartbreaking past of abandonment and abuse that many couldnt help but compare to the tragic upbringing of Alex making them a good fit.

Fans loved her for her character development and relationship with Alex but got a bombshell of a shock when it came out that she was already married, and Jo Wilson wasnt even her real name its Brook Stadler.

The strong female character moves past this problem only to face many more before and after the highly-loved romance. Ranging from many other troubling relationships, struggles with her career, drama with co-workers, and much more.

RELATED: Greys Anatomy: Why Camilla Luddington Doesnt Think Jo Wilson Needs Alex Karev to Come Back

In a Reddit forum created to complain about Luddingtons character, one Reddit user admitted, Her American accent is kinda annoying, sometimes her British accent is breaking through and prompted others to chime in.

This brought about a conversation on why she wasnt just introduced as a British character, to begin with. Some fans think that wouldve been better than making her mask her accent altogether.

I think it would have been better to let Camilla play a British character in the first place, another Reddit user complained. Then she wouldnt have to fake an American accent.

Another fan gave one theory, saying that they did actually get her to audition with both accents and went with American. I am guessing it would be harder for Jo to be a female Alex if she was British, and the ex-street kid thing would be even more unbelievable, for her to be able to emigrate to US and attend a top school, etc

Jo has always been a controversial topic since her debut on the show, but over the years, many fans have actually grown to love the person her character has evolved into being. However, unbelieving accent aside, fans think Camilla Luddingtons Jo is steadily being written off the show. This comes after the shocking news of Alex Karev running back to ex-wife Izzie and leaving Jo behind to pick up the pieces. Only time will tell as this season nears its ending, and something crazy is sure to happen.

Aldon Smith, Colin Kaepernick and an anatomy of the 49ers’ tumultuous 2011 NFL Draft class – The Athletic

You could have a lively argument about the best 49ers draft class of the 21st century.

Maybe its the 2005 class, which included a running back, Frank Gore, whos likely heading to the Pro Football Hall of Fame, as well as quarterback Alex Smith, whose two big plays at the end of a playoff win against the Saints in January 2012 a touchdown run and a touchdown throw are the teams most electrifying in the past 20 years.

Youd also have to consider the 2007 class, which included a pair of first-rounders, linebacker Patrick Willis and tackle Joe Staley, who were voted to a combined 13 Pro Bowls. The 2010 class deserves mention, too, considering it included guard Mike Iupati and linebacker NaVorro Bowman.
