Williams stopped by the late-night talk show to chat about his new role, being nude on stage and teased a potential “Grey’s Anatomy” reunion.

“I’ve learned in my minutes of theater, don’t try to read into it because it just creates more insecurity,” Williams said when asked about being fully naked during his stage debut. “I’m told it’s quite insane. It’s the first (time), so I’ve got nothing to compare it to and I won’t be scared of anything after this,” Williams continued.
