Los Angeles, CA (CNS) - Reports have been circulating that Katherine Heigl wants to leave "Grey's Anatomy," ever since she withdrew her name from the Emmy nominations.

According to Heigl, she has no such plans. The star, who plays Izzie on the medical drama, says she will "of course" return to the show that helped make her famous. That doesn't mean, however, that she isn't getting lots and lots of movie offers.

Heigl has starred in "Knocked Up" and "27 Dresses" since she started on "Grey's."

Heigl is contracted with "Grey's" through the 2008-2009 season and is already filming episodes. In a recent interview she said the other cast members on the show are like her family and that it is a happy and joyous place to work.
