The Season Six premiere of Grey's Anatomy begins shooting on July 15.
According to inside sources, casting directors are currently looking for actors to play the guest roles in this episode (the medical drama's 102nd overall).
One role in particular listed in the Greys' Anatomy premiere casting call caught our eyes: Producers are looking for someone to play a Catholic priest in his 60s.
Could this possibly mean that Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) and Derek (Patrick Dempsey) are finally getting married? Like for real married, like in a church?
Or on the flip side, could someone be receiving their last rites, like perhaps Dr. George O'Malley, since actor T.R. Knight is not returning for Season Six?
What other characters can we expect in the sixth season premiere?
The producers are also looking for an 18-year-old male patient, Andy Smith, and his mother, Pam, for a two-episode arc, in addition to what appears to be a few foreign ladies backpacking across the United States who end up in the hospital. Sounds like it'll be good.
This episode of Grey's Anatomy will be written by executive producer Krista Vernoff, one of the show's top writers over the years, and directed by Ed Ornelas.
What do you think of the above Grey's Anatomy spoilers and rumors?

Don't know how they'd do a wedding with EP pregnant...probably the latter :/

It won't be a wedding. Mer/Der already decided that they are not churchy wedding people. Plus, they are already married via post it. I bet it is a priest for last rights for George. =(

Its definately a priest 4 a funeral cause george's family is cathloic...

Im going to be a pessamist and go with George's death.

I totally agree with you Shannon.
Also, they are always looking for "guest stars" so I never read anything into it....half the time they end up going with someone different from who they were originally looking for. I remember not too long ago they announced (on this website) that they were looking for a half-black, half-caucasian to play a guest role and readers went crazy trying to figure out what character it would be for and I was going crazy reading all their ideas. And as far as I know it never even happened. I really think they say shit like this to throw us off track so we'll be surprised when the real episode airs. Seriously!
This is an example of what I was telling you about being "spoiler-free". How can you go on this website and NOT read articles like this when you are trying to be "spoiler-free"? I would like to try it but it's too hard for me to see a title like that and then NOT read it. What are the rules for being "spoiler-free" ?

I'm agreeing with McHot- that was my first thought too... but the only thing wrong with that is that he flatlined at the end of the episode, so either he dies on the table, or they manage to save him and he dies later...

Meredith and Derek won't get married, because that would mean giving fans what they want ( *rolleyes* )
Shonda already said that the Post-it was the wedding :/

I think its time to get over the wedding w meredith and derek.In my opinion, the post-it was the best way for them to do it. I'm thinking the priest is for something death related. Izzies catholic as well so it could also be for her...

I don't think there is going to be an actual wedding either. George's family is Catholic and so is Izzie. I think we could possibly be looking at a funeral. Or perhaps we're all being fooled. Like wannabeMer said, Shonda could be using the priest idea to throw us off. I don't know about you guys, but I'm super excited for September!
