Kevin McKidd's Next TV Role Revealed After Grey's Anatomy Exit
McKidd will play Alex, a man whose buried secret threatens to surface as a community project uncovers an abandoned railway, Deadline reported.
- On Wednesday, April 22, 2026, actor Kevin McKidd landed the lead role in ITV's upcoming British drama series The Only Suspect, adapting Louise Candlish's novel set in London across dual timelines.
- The thriller follows Alex, a man who buried a body 30 years ago, whose picture-perfect suburban life with partner Beth faces catastrophe when a nature trail project threatens to expose his secret.
- Exiting ABC's Grey's Anatomy after two decades as Dr. Owen Hunt, McKidd called the new role a 'coming home for me,' marking a significant career transition from Los Angeles.
- Beyond acting, McKidd—a prolific director with more than four dozen episodes at the helm—is expanding his production footprint as Ferryman Films partners with STV Studios to adapt William Shaw's The Red Shore.
- The Highlander reboot film also awaits McKidd, who joins a large ensemble cast featuring actors Henry Cavill and Russell Crowe in the highly anticipated project.
