Laurel

Actress Karla Souza plays Laurel Castillo. It wasn’t until episode eleven in Season 1 that her Latin background was revealed – though that wasn’t initially supposed to be the case for her storyline. Souza told ET, “When I was cast, Laurel wasn’t supposed to be Latin at all. Then when Pete and Shonda [Rhimes] had that conversation about making her Latin, it was very important to have that be something that ‘could or couldn’t be,’ that wouldn’t ‘make or break’ the character, that it wasn’t the label of the character. She just happened to be Latin — and we could find it out later on.”
