Many New And Old Faces To Appear In Supernatural's Season 6

Ok, I give up. I have absolutely no idea what the heck is going to happen in season 6 of Supernatural. Now that the newest casting spoilers have been making the rounds, I am officially ceasing to even speculate what's in store for the Winchester brothers next season and can only hope that Comic Con (the Supernatural panel will take place on Sunday, July 25) will shed some light on what to expect in September.

Now we have news of more new and returning characters.


Firstly, we already know that Bobby and Cas will both be returning in season 6. We've also been told that we should expect to see Mark Sheppard return as Crowley. According to Supernatural Locations, Crowley was photographed on the set for the fourth episode of season 6.

We already know that Grandpa Campbell (having, you know, DIED back in the 1970s) will somehow become a recurring character on the show next season (as Mitch Pileggi has been cast as a recurring character).

Remember Kim Rhodes who played Sheriff Jody Mills back in the last Bobby-centric episode in season 5 ("Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid")? According to zap2it, she'll make a return appearance in the fourth episode, which is entitled "Weekend at Bobby's" and is the one directed by Jensen Ackles.
zap2it also reports that Jennifer Aspen (also known as Terri's sister on Glee) will be making an appearance in the same Bobby-centric episode. Apparently things at Bobby's house won't be going so smoothly if her appearance is any indication...



Don't expect that Grandpa Campbell is the only family member you'll see in season 6. No, I'm not talking about Adam, the Winchesters' half-brother. I'm actually talking about another member of the Campbell family. According to reports at Gate Con, Corin Nemec (formerly of SG1) will be playing the recurring role of Christian Campbell, the boys' maternal cousin. This one is a bit easier to figure out than Grandpa Campbell, despite the fact that we never saw Mary's siblings. We did, however, learn back in early season 2 that the boys had an uncle they never met who had paid for Mary's gravestone (I think this was mentioned in "Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things"). So it makes sense that Mary had a brother, who then went on to have a son, Christian, and got him into hunting.

But here's the kicker – the final casting spoiler I have for you today from zap2it is regarding Fredric Lehne, who happened to portray the Yellow-Eyed Demon (Azazel). Lehne will return in season 6 as Azazel.

Also... Mark Pellegrino seems to have cornered the market on TV antagonists, having played heavies in no less than three of the most popular genre shows of the century: Lost, Supernatural and Dexter. But while Lost is finished and his Dexter character almost certainly dead, there's still a chance we'll see Lucifer, his Supernatural villain, return.
"I don't know what's next for my character," Pellegrino admitted. "I can't say one way or the other. All I know at this point is that my flesh – my meat suit – is gone, and as far as we left it in the last episode, dead. I don't know what will happen."
