After portraying Dr. Nathan Riggs for two seasons on "Grey's Anatomy," Martin Henderson was written out of the series in Episode 5 of Season 14, per Entertainment Weekly. During his last appearance, the character was seen reuniting with his long-lost fiancé and Owen's sister Megan Hunt. While the casting shakeup was a surprise to diehard fans, Henderson's time on the show was always planned as a short endeavor.

"It was always a short-term thing and I was happy to spend a few years doing the show," he told Deadline in 2017. However, Henderson also said he was open to returning to the series before praising "Grey's Anatomy" creator Shonda Rhimes. "If an opportunity came in the future with an interesting storyline, I'd be happy to explore," he said in the same interview. "I definitely feel connected to Shonda and am grateful for the opportunity she has given me,"

Rhimes echoed similar sentiments at the time and revealed that she "couldn't wait" to work with him again. "He has been part of the Shondaland family since the pilot of 'Inside the Box' and he will always be family," she also told Deadline. "I can't wait to find a new project to work with him on in the future." But even though his time as the popular character ended, Henderson has remained booked and busy within the industry since.
