Grey's Anatomy is bringing back a fan favourite for season 14.

Deadline reports that Kim Raver will return to the ABC medical drama as Dr Teddy Altman for a guest arc on the upcoming season, although it's not yet clear what her storyline will be.

Dr Altman was last seen in the season eight finale when she was fired from Seattle Grace by her crush Owen Hunt (Kevin McKidd) for a good reason as it allowed her to take her dream job at MEDCOM.

It wasn't the last we heard of her though, as Amelia (Caterina Scorsone) spoke to her on the phone in season 13 when Owen's presumed dead sister was treated at Altman's hospital.

Raver will also be seen in the fifth season of Ray Donovan in a recurring role as a surgeon.

Grey's Anatomy fans were left relieved, but sad, when the season 13 finale last month saw series regular Jerrika Hinton leave her role as Dr Stephanie Edwards after five seasons on the show.

The dramatic season finale saw Dr Edwards perform surgery on the leg of a young girl as they attempted to escape a fire at Grey Sloan, with the ordeal leaving them alive but shaking Stephanie so much that she quit her job.

Grey's Anatomy airs on ABC in the US and Sky Living in the UK.
