Jason George reprises his role as Ben Warren on "Station 19." Ben — who's married to Dr. Miranda Bailey on "Grey's Anatomy" — is a rookie firefighter and EMT who most recently worked as an anesthesiologist-turned-surgical resident at Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital.
"Grey's Anatomy" fans already know and love Jason George. The 46-year-old actor has been playing Dr. Ben Warren since Season 6 premiered in 2009.

Barrett, who's been dating actor Austin Durant for years, told reporters that she's excited about her big break on "Station 31." "We're all just hoping to live up to Shonda [Rhimes]'s example," she said. "Of course, it's intimidating because you don't want to just play 'power.' You want to play all the shades of any woman, which involves sex and romance and jealousy and all of those real-life emotions. And of course playing women who are succeeding in a male-dominated world is really exciting because what woman can't identify with that?"
Jay Hayden stars as Travis Montgomery on "Station 19." Travis is the firefighter who's described as the "heart" of the crew.
