    No offense Tam, but that's probably the stupidest comment I have ever heard.
    
    You did read the whole article right? If you read it properly they said a movie was pitched to her. They CAME to her for that project. Just like they CAME to her to star in 27 Dresses. There are two examples right there that the movie industry wants her. Plus she always showed a desire to produce films since she was younger.
    
    This way she gets two birds with one stone. She can start her own production company, and the movie that was pitched TO her can be the first movie under it. Like another poster said she is one smart cookie. She is finding stability that isn't on Grey's. She is branching out, and it doesn't mean she will leave Grey's. That's up to her if she wants to buy out of her contract, so right there is all pure speculation.
    
    I see it as a very smart business move that proved very valuable to many celebs that do it. Thus far this year all of her business deals have been very smart, and will i

    Sounds like one smart cookie, looking toward future professional stability at a time when fan confidence in Grey's has fallen off somewhat after a less-than-satisfying season 3. Opinions of the character Izzie aside, there is no denying that this woman is a talented actress. As for leaving the show, I am under the impression that most of the main cast signed multi-year (six?) year contracts. If so, they can get dumped, but quitting isn't so easy. Of course, you could always pull a remarkably stupid stunt, like a former cast member, and get fired.

    Aha and Tam,
    
    So are you saying the same for Drew Barrymore and for Will Smith?
    
    I think it's more likely that she's planning for her future when Grey's is over - such as when she gets married and may decide to take time off from films and/or tv to have children and raise them well.
    
    Why are people always so negative when famous people do well for themselves??? She has had a fabulous year and is a talented actress honing her craft in all parts of the business.
    
    Regards,
    
    A Katie fan

    Wow no movies want her anymore so she has to produce them herself so she can star in them, lol. Jokes!
