"Supernatural" Season 13: Mark Sheppard Not Returning as a Series Regular
by Vlada Gelman
May 24, 2017

It appears at least one of "Supernatural‘s" many finale deaths will stick. Mark Sheppard will not return to The CW drama as a series regular for Season 13, TVLine has confirmed.

Sheppard first hinted at his departure Tuesday night via an Instagram post: “So to all my #spnfamily everywhere… my crew and my fellow storytellers… thanks for the ride. Time for something new.”

Sheppard’s frenemy character Crowley — who recurred for several years before the actor was promoted to series regular in Season 10 — sacrificed his own life during last Thursday’s finale in order to seal the rift between worlds.

"Supernatural" returns this fall on The CW, where it will continue to air Thursdays at 8/7c.

Mark Sheppard Speaks Out on "Supernatural" Exit: "There Are No Plans for Me to Return at Any Juncture"
by Ryan Schwartz

Don’t expect "Supernatural‘s" Mark Sheppard to make a reappearance on The CW series anytime soon — even as a guest star.

Earlier this week, TVLine confirmed that the actor would not be returning as a series regular in Season 13. (Sheppard previously confirmed his exit in an Instagram post, insisting that it was “time for something new.”)

Shortly after our story broke, "Supernatural" Co-EP Jim Michaels hinted that viewers have not seen the last of Sheppard’s fan-favorite Crowley character, declaring on Twitter, “Never say never.”

However, Sheppard — who was killed off in last Thursday’s finale — quickly took umbrage with Michaels’ post.

“With all due respect, your comment is inaccurate and misleading to the fans,” Sheppard tersely tweeted in response. “There are NO plans to have me return to Supernatural at ANY juncture.”

It’s hardly unprecedented for characters on "Supernatural" to die only to be resurrected at a later time. But it would appear that Crowley — who sacrificed his own life in order to seal the rift between worlds — will be an exception.
