‘Grey’s Anatomy’ Texas Spinoff Casts ‘How to Get Away With Murder’ Alum Karla Souza in Lead Role

Karla Souza has been cast as the lead in an untitled “Grey’s Anatomy” spinoff set in West Texas, where she will play Dr Carolina “Lina” Hall. The series follows a rural medical centre described as the last chance for care across a remote stretch, expanding the franchise with another medical drama.

The spinoff was announced in May and is now planned for the 2027–2028 broadcast season, after a delay linked to not receiving a California TV tax credit. Souza previously appeared in ABC’s “How to Get Away With Murder” and “Home Economics”. Shonda Rhimes and Meg Marinis are co-creators and executive producers, with “Grey’s Anatomy” star Ellen Pompeo and Betsy Beers also executive producing.
