Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo) and Nick Marsh (Scott Speedman) have a moment in a brand-new trailer for the upcoming Grey’s Anatomy season 20.
The new Grey’s Anatomy trailer teases sparks flying between Meredith Grey and Nick Marsh. The upcoming season of the long-running medical drama was delayed amid the dual 2023 strikes, during which writers and then actors took to the picket lines to fight for fair pay. Although season 20 has a shortened order of 10 episodes to meet its delayed schedule, the drama for its central characters, including Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) despite her exit from the main cast in season 19, will not slow down.
Via Variety, ABC has shared a new full-length trailer for Grey’s Anatomy season 20. Check it out below:
There is no shortage of interpersonal drama and romance in the trailer, which includes hints at characters’ potential firings, struggles with sobriety, and a possible wedding gone wrong. However, one of the steamiest moments belongs to Meredith and Nick Marsh (Scott Speedman), who get up close and personal while he insists “I wanna live a whole life with love and you,” to which she responds, “Well, OK then.”
Do Nick and Meredith Have a Future on Grey’s Anatomy?
This romantic moment between Meredith and Nick seems to be the culmination of a long history for the couple. They first met during a season 14 episode where the transplant surgeon had a bad reaction to his own kidney transplant, leading to heavy flirtation between him and Meredith while he was in recovery. However, he didn’t reappear on the show until season 18, when Speedman joined the main cast and Nick had a surprise reunion with Meredith, in which he learned that she was no longer dating Dr. Hayes (Richard Flood).
Who Is Nick Marsh On Grey’s Anatomy?
While regulars like Meredith Grey will always be a compelling part of the popular drama Grey’s Anatomy, Nick Marsh is also a memorable character.
Although the pair circled one another for the following two seasons, their attempts at maintaining a relationship were rocky up through Meredith’s departure from the Seattle hospital midway through Grey’s Anatomy season 19. Pompeo herself exited the main cast of the show at the same time, though she remains on board as a narrator and executive producer, in addition to further onscreen appearances in a limited capacity. There is now a geographical divide between the couple, so it remains to be seen if this romantic moment culminates in them actually getting together.
One possible ray of hope for the Grey’s Anatomy couple is the fact that Speedman’s status as a series regular has not been confirmed for the new season. This means that it’s entirely possible for the character to leave Seattle and follow Meredith back to Boston. However, given the fact that this trailer is just one glimpse into the inner workings of the new season, there will likely still be quite a few romantic twists and turns before that decision is reached, if it happens at all.
Grey’s Anatomy season 20 premieres on ABC on March 14.
