Variety

Vernoff, who's also showrunner of Station 19 and creator of Rebel, "is a superstar who makes the almost impossible task of running three shows seem like a reasonable amount of work,” said Dana Walden, chairman of entertainment for Walt Disney Television. “I am honestly in awe of her. Everyone at the studio and network is grateful for the tremendous job she’s done on the amazing Shondaland shows, and we are proud to be launching Krista’s first creation, Rebel, on ABC in two weeks. The optimism, intellectual curiosity and quest for social justice embodied in its title character are traits that could easily apply to Krista herself, and those are just a few of the qualities that make us feel lucky to work with her every day.”
