Isaiah Washington Furious Over Grey's Anatomy's Use Of His Image

Los Angeles, CA (CNS) - Sacked "Grey's Anatomy" employee Isaiah Washington isn't exactly thrilled of seeing his face on the medical drama's on-air promotion now that he is out of the show.

Washington, 44, has expressed his disapproval over the series' use of his image for its commercial ad. He claims that he has no plans to go back to the show and therefore the show has no right to show his face on their new promo ad.

The actor's rep Howard Bragman issues a statement to TMZ.com regarding the matter saying, "Isaiah has no plans to go back to 'Grey's Anatomy.'"

"That being said, we were more than a little surprised that ABC used his likeness in a promo for the show, and indeed advanced his character's storyline. Mr. Washington's attorney has contacted the Screen Actors Guild and ABC as to the appropriateness of that action."

Washington has left the show after producers refused to renew his contract at the end of the last season due to reported off-camera conflicts with cast members and his infamous use of the word "faggot" at the Golden Globe Awards.
