Per The Hollywood Reporter, George suggests he could appear on Grey’s Anatomy following the ending of Station 19. According to the actor, he believes that “there’s still a Ben-Bailey, or Benley, story to tell.” He went even further to say that “there may be conversations.” George did not concretely confirm that he would appear in Grey’s Anatomy. Check out the full quote from George below:
I like to think that there’s still a Ben-Bailey, or Benley, story to tell. I think that’s a possibility. There may be conversations.

Not only would George’s reappearance in Grey’s Anatomy mean that it is not the end of the line for Ben, but it also means the continuation of Benley on screen. Ben and his now wife Miranda Bailey are arguably the most beloved couple on Grey’s Anatomy. They have had several dramatic stories throughout their time as a couple, including going through miscarriage, adoption, and more, so a lot of their stories have been told. However, if George thinks there are more Ben-Bailey stories to be told, the audiences would certainly welcome it.
Hopefully, if George were to return in Grey’s Anatomy season 21, he would be given a substantial storyline. While he was a regular on Station 19, Ben’s appearance on Grey’s Anatomy has been more sporadic over recent years. Dr. Bailey’s role has also not been large on Station 19, as she appears for only 25 episodes. As a result, it has been a while since viewers have seen a more proper Benley storyline, so Grey’s Anatomy season 21 may be the perfect time to discover such a narrative again.
