Isaiah Washington Talks About His New Movie And Grey's Anatomy

In a recent interview with Huffington Post, Isaiah Washington admitted that when he was fired from hit TV show, Grey's Anatomy; "Everything just fell apart."

En-Wikipedia

He claimed that after the incident at the Golden Globe awards, he lost everything; he could not afford to engage the services of an agent or a publicist and he felt as though he could not continue. Isaiah Washington was fired from the hit series for using a gay slur, during an argument with another cast member.

It would seem as though things are now looking up for the actor as he has taken a role in the movie Blackbird. The movie is a coming of age story about an African American who is coming to terms with his sexuality. Isaiah told the Times that he feel incredibly blessed with how his career has turned out. He claims that he has worked with some of the most professional people in the industry, including Sandra Oh.

Isaiah seems to be very happy with his life and feels incredibly lucky.

So what do you think about Isaiah Washington's revelations and would you like to see him come back to Grey's Anatomy as Preston Burke? I know I would certainly love to see him back on the show, even if he happens to return after Sandra Oh leaves. Isaiah Washington is a very talented and charismatic actor and his return to Grey's would be a popular move with some fans.

However, given how he left the show, under a cloud of controversy, do you think the powers that be at ABC would ask him to come back. ABC are determined to keep Grey's Anatomy on the air as long as possible, so you never know, we may get lucky.

Actor Isaiah Washington Still Watches Grey's Anatomy

Sandra Oh's former Grey's Anatomy co-star Isaiah Washington - who played Cristina's teacher and 

almost husband Dr. Preston Burke  - appeared on CNN Newsroom today where he discussed his 

new book and the big controversy that he was involved in on Grey's Anatomy a few years ago 

which lead to his dismissal.

In the interview he says that he has been invited back to the show since he left and he briefly 

mentions that still "peeks in" to watch Grey's Anatomy because he adores Sandra Oh.

Sandra Oh has never commented on the controversy publicly other than leaving a cryptic remark in Marie Claire, 

but when asked in an interview if she was sad to see Isaiah Washington go, she said this:

Sandra Oh: How do I say this? For me, it’s been very difficult because I found our storyline very rich. 

I found it a complicated relationship and I'm sad to see that relationship storyline to have gone. It’s sad.

Would you have liked to see Preston Burke back on Grey's Anatomy to stir things up?

Despite all the drama that happened during Season 3 with Isaiah Washington, T R Knight and Katherine Heigl, I would love to see Burke come back to Grey's Anatomy as I loved the character of Preston Burke. As for Burke and Cristina, I think Owen and Cristina make a better couple, simply because Burke expected things from Cristina that she just could not give him and I'm not sure Burke would have agreed to Marriage counselling; see photo below:

I am also not surprised that Washington still watches the show to see his former co-star; as Sandra Oh is such an amazing and talented actress. She never ceases to entertain.
