The stars of the hit TV show, Grey’s Anatomy, have joined the picket line in support of the Writers Guild of America.
Stars, Patrick Dempsey, Ellen Pompeo, Katherine Heigl and Sandra Oh spent their lunch breaks outside Prospect Studios, where the show is filmed.
Oh, who plays Dr Cristina Yang in the series, said the matter was “way too important” to ignore.
“You’ve got to have a story in order to perform anything, to have any ideas on where to go and what to do, and where the character, story lines, arcs, everything,” said Heigl.
“They’re everything. We can’t do it without them.”
TR Knight, who plays Dr George O’Malley in the show, revealed that the Grey’s Team are currently shooting scenes for their last scripted episode then filming would be put on hold.
“We’re supposed to be going until the end of May and right now our last shooting day will be Tuesday or Wednesday,” he said.
“As actors, we’re paid a different way than the writers, but there’s also the crew to keep in mind. They are out of work as of next Wednesday,” he added.
