The foursome joins Ellen Pompeo and Patrick Dempsey who signed their new two-year contracts in January. With the new deals, they are sealed to return should the Shonda Rhimes-created show be renewed for season 11 and 12.

Pompeo, Dempsey, Wilson, Chambers and Pickens Jr. are among the remaining original stars of the show, while Ramirez originally recurred in season 2 before being promoted to series regular in season 3.

Editors' Pick

Sandra Oh will be the only original star departing the long-running series at the end of season 10. Isaiah Washington, whose character Dr. Preston Burke had a romantic relationship with Oh's Dr. Cristina Yang in the first three seasons, returned in the latest episode aired on May 1 to give "her story that full-circle moment."
