'Grey's Anatomy' Season 14 Introducing New Doctor With DeLuca Connection
"I got all my sisters with me" should be the motto of "Grey's Anatomy."
The ABC medical drama will introduce yet another new doctor/sister to the canvas in Season 14. Entertainment Weekly reports that Stefania Spampinato has been cast in a multi-episode arc as Carina DeLuca, sister of Andrew DeLuca (Giacomo Gianniotti).
"This year, we're going to definitely have DeLuca's character a little more fleshed out with the arrival of his sister from Italy," Gianniotti said. "We're going to see a new dynamic in the hospital as his sister arrives, and it's not exactly good news; he's frustrated by it."
Gianniotti teased that Carina has a "very interesting and controversial — some would say — profession within the medical field."
"It's a thorn in his side, her being there, but everybody else is quite fond of her," he added. "They're going to speak a little bit of Italian, which will be nice for the Italian fans, because [the show's] so big in Italy."
Carina isn't the first sister to show up to cause some drama. Megan Hunt, Owen's sister, is coming to Seattle, after being presumed dead. She'll be played by "Timeless" star Abigail Spencer, who is replacing Bridget Regan. And of course, other sisters have shown up in seasons past, including Derek's sis Amelia Shepherd (Caterina Scorsone), and Meredith's half-siblings Maggie (Kelly McCreary) and the now-deceased Lexie (Chyler Leigh).
