In just a little over one week, the moment that fans of Supernatural have seemingly waited an eternity for will arrive. We are, of course, talking about Jeffrey Dean Morgan returning as John Winchester, something that’s been itching to be crossed off many wishlists since the conclusion to season 2.
Since being initially announced, Morgan himself expressed amazement at how far the horror series has come, even saying he had “a blast” filming the milestone. And if that weren’t enough, it was also confirmed that Kurt Fuller will return as the villainous Zachariah. For those keeping tabs, he bit the dust during season 5.
By now, I’m guessing you’re ready to begin browsing the gallery of new images promoting “Lebanon.” Found below, it offers new looks at the complete, reunited Winchester clan. In fact, I imagine at least one member of the “SPN Family” out there will frame the picture showing all four smiling at the dinner table.
At this moment, the specifics of John’s return haven’t entirely been made clear, though it occurs due to some kind of wish made by Dean. And as you may have guessed, Zachariah’s comeback is likely an unforeseen addition to that. But hey, the boys are used to being thrown curveballs by now.
For more info on this one, be sure to check out the official synopsis:
Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) look to occult lore for a solution to their latest problem, but instead of a resolution, they find much more than either of them had anticipated. Jeffrey Dean Morgan (John Winchester) guest stars. The episode was directed by Robert Singer and written by Andrew Dabb & Meredith Glynn.
Supernatural airs on Thursday nights on The CW, with “Lebanon” set to debut on February 7th.
