Now look back, Casting Director Linda Lowy can say that “Grey’s anatomy The project are always the most thing I’ve ever done because it acts with faith and generations. “But as she did not make a doctor access – or in the project

“I didn’t do a television of charge. I had a handful of pilots,” lowey recalled. “It was the first time I’ve ever tried to do something in the episode.”

ABC sent her the pilot for a show called Chiemgen (the work title). “I have returned them and I said, ‘I’d be more likely to do something that was called Bumps about caviar fishermen or something. I don’t do any medical show. I don’t don’t do at all, but if I ever do TV, I don’t give a medical show and I will do anything about Poland. ‘”

On a meeting with the Daunding-new television writer Rhonda Rhimes, and Lowy’s flushed for not to get TV to get TVAnd, get some of the shoondal country Grey’s anatomy to Shandalian, When I get away with murder, Station 10and more.

In honors of Grey’s anatomyThe 20. S 20. Anniversary – and therefore the showaland is the 20th anniversary – Lowy at some of their most memorable moments in the Casting.

Sandra

“Cristina yang is one of the great characters ever, ever, ever, ever on television,” lowey says. And but the Sandra Oh did not have technical audition for the part. Instead of reading it after the oh for the part of the SD. Serrašey Faster (that Challra Wilbason a lot ofparano. “My memory is that the network may have a real idea of ​​that character,” lowey says, “We want to test it.” We just want to offer it for her. ”

“I’ll call Annonda and I was like, ‘If we say on the phone with the network tomorrow, you must say that you are going to say that you are going to be Sandra, because else you will go so,'” Lowra. “And Sandra was an offer.”

Patrick steamed and ugly pompeo

For the couple in the center of Grey’s anatomy Pilot, Dek (Patrick Dumpsey) In DEEDHEh (DEGEDH (ELD POMPEO), a role has quite easily fallen. “Ellen had a deal in the network, and that is why she wanted her for the show. We were good with that” lowy says. “We had to meet her and talk to her, and it was a wonderful meeting we had with her and that all was well, and we wanted her for the show.”

As for the steamsy, fans knew the story good: “The network wanted some own,” lowey says. “We don’t give a roe lowered. And they were not sure about patrick steams. He had to read a test with ugly.” Spoiler: He made the test.

Chandra wilson

Miranda Bailey was one character that is to surprise anyone. “When I’ve met for my Concience, the Suma, Man, I have your casting and scarp, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small, small cleaning christistic.

So how they stopped with Wilson? “I look at all individuals audition that comes in, and I try to look at all of the submissions, if possible,” lowey says. “I sat in the machine. I’ll remember the hall in the ribbon. I have arrived in the grace and I said,” You have now been the baggage. And so fast drop she started, she looked at and she said, “good, this cannot be refused. ‘” “” ”

In the end they are both Wilson tested and Kristin Cheowth, who has many more thinking about the original thinking. “Chandra was so nervous. She was like, ‘she is one of my idols,'” lowy says, denoting Chelowth. However, it is wilhono that has been done the part.

Kerry Washington

Many than Olivia Pope, Kerry Washington came prepared in their audition. “Kerry Washington’s audition for Shandalian Was the best audition I am beautifully loved, I Je you both see in the pilot, good, well, it was. She has the best audition I’ve ever seen, “lowey remembered.” Not only the words, it was all. It was her physics, it was their choice of outfit, it was their beauty, one’s emotion. It was their silence. It was her. I just never seen something quite the most spectacular. ”

Surprising, Washington didn’t do any chemistry with tony goldwyn, the fitz and their olivies. “We’ve never read a chemistry,” lowey says. “I could see it in my mind. I don’t need, and shonda don’t, and (Executive producer) Betsy) Betsy) I don’t make sure.”

Guiltomemon díaz

Fit fact: Dan bukatlelights, who is later as cyrus ‘(Jeffr’ (Jeffrry is the part of the haunted. But according to the part of the hatchmology

“Guillomemon Díaz has a brilliant audition for hick,” lowy says. “We don’t have a lot of a lot of episode not a lot of a lot so that we do not afford to have the Millot.

Viola Davis

No, Vila Davis does not have for the analysis to have the analiate caution When I get away with murderIn the. “That was an offer,” lowey says. “That was so we truly do really finals. And it’s all about it’s soiled.” The analies would be proud.

James Pickts Jr.

Incentrazia, who should play the Great Richard Webber, was much easier than George O’malley’s (tr knitigy) for the first surgery, tell me that many. “He is someone I knew because of the theater,” lowey says by James Pickset Jr. “And I was like, ‘Why doesn’t it have the actors a show?’ So I got him in and the audition, and I said on sunna, ‘I really love him. He is underusus. Can I just see if we can’t see him.’ It turned out that the caution of the Casting of the Casting is the ABC knew Jim and he said, ‘I have the Jim.’ And he tells me it. ”

The goss of Privacy practice

In real spinoff fashion, Privacy practice came deep sword together together. “We’re occupied the whole thing without script,” lowy says. “Shondo obviously had the seeds of the characters, but when they met people are a little easier, as if we have made a little easier. It made a bit easier. It has a little bit of that mind. Grey’s Was such a hit so everyone wanted to meet for this show. ”
