  "account": "Ellen Pompeo will transition from her role as a doctor to portraying a nurse in an upcoming Hulu drama series titled \"Not a Sound,\" according to Deadline. Pompeo, best known for her lead role in \"Grey's Anatomy,\" will star as Amelia Winn, an ER nurse who suffered hearing loss following a hit-and-run incident. The series synopsis reveals that Winn, accompanied by her service dog, uncovers the body of a former colleague, leading her into a dangerous investigation that may uncover the truth about the accident that altered her life. Veteran TV producer David E. Kelley, recognized for his work on \"Big Little Lies,\" will serve as an executive producer alongside Pompeo. The show, based on the novel by Heather Gudenkauf, will be written by Matthew Tinker and Annakate Chappell, who have previously worked on \"Big Sky.\" Pompeo will continue to star as Meredith Grey in \"Grey's Anatomy,\" which will return for its 23rd season on October 15th. However, she has been gradually reducing her involvement in recent seasons and is not expected to appear in every episode. Despite this, Pompeo is not confirmed to return to \"Grey's Anatomy\" for Season 2 of the Hulu anthology series \"Good American Family,\" in which she plays an adoptive parent named Kristine. Additionally, Pompeo is set to co-star in a Hulu dramedy pilot called \"Chicks,\" which revolves around two estranged half-sisters who embark on a criminal career after their father passes away.",
