Greys Anatomy star Camilla Luddington has become a fan favorite since her debut as Dr. Jo Wilson (later Karev) in season 9. With her character overcoming various challenges over the years, the British-born actor exhibits a wide range of emotions on the medical drama.

Though she clearly embodies Jo, Luddington shared that she wouldnt mind playing this role on the medical drama if she had the chance.

In 2010, Luddington auditioned for the voice of Lara Croft in the legendary video gameTomb Raider. The Greys star recalled her elation upon getting the role.

When I got the call that I had gottenTomb Raider, I literally screamed. I was so excited, because growing up, she was really the only iconic female lead in a video game that I knew of, Luddington told PopSugar in 2018. So, I just remember thinking it was such an honor that I got to jump in the boots of Lara Croft.

While her video game persona and herGreys Anatomycharacter seem in sharp contrast to each other, Luddington sees some similarities.

It was interesting to me that theres a lot of Jo Jo didnt grow up with her parents, so theres a lot of question about a lot of pain in her past, the William & Kate star shared. And, of course, Lara deals with the pain, and mourning, and loss of her own parents. So there is a similarity of them both being survivors in their own world.

The British actor is a self-proclaimed fan of Greys Anatomy creator Shonda Rhimes, seeing her as a trailblazer for women.

Shonda has a way of keeping her audience on edge time and time again, Luddington said in 2016 interviewwith BUILD. She doesnt give in to what the audience wants and always it serves for a more captivating story line. Thats what I like about her. Shes just paving the way for females in the industry.

Though she has no intention of ditching her lab coat, Luddington confessed shed relish the opportunity to play a character from one of Rhimes other shows.

Scandals Olivia Pope. How could you not? she toldGood Housekeepingin 2015. On top of being this fabulous, powerful woman, the outfits are just opening my trailer door every day and seeing those fabulous coats and hats would make each morning a little bit better.

Playing a doctor on a medical drama can take its toll. Luddington revealed a side effect to being constantly subjected to health-related storylines.

I feel like a complete hypochondriac! Luddington told theChicago Tribunein April 2019. I feel like somethings probably wrong all the time. I didnt realize how many different ways there are to almost die,so I do feel like Im constantly living in a possible season finale of my own life.

Self-diagnosing aside, the Greys star thrives in her portrayal as Jo. Though when asked if there was a character she would want to trade places with, she had one in mind.

I think I would want to play, she hesitated, maybe Bailey. She gets to boss everyone around. Thats kind of fun. I feel like as an intern were always taking crap and shes the one that dishes it out so it would be fun for that role reversal.
