"It's not good there," the site quotes a source as saying. "Shonda is pissed. They're thinking of killing her off. They want Izzie dead."
Of course, it's not impossible that Heigl wants that too. Since her breakout role in Knocked Up, she's certainly ready for a film career -- although it remains to be seen whether the future will find her becoming the next Julia Roberts, or making endless sequels to 27 Dresses for the Lifetime channel.
