The show’s creator Eric Kripke originally planned for the show to last only five seasons, but due to increased ratings from the fourth and fifth seasons. The CW network renewed the series for a sixth season. Kripke has confirmed he will not be returning as show runner; however, he will still remain as a hands-on executive producer, leaving Executive Producer Sera Gamble to take over the reins.
Gamble has said the sixth season of the show will focus on the brothers’ relationship. The season will steer towards the format of the early seasons with “lots of meat-and-potatoes closed-ended episodes, and…a season-long story arc to weave in. According to a press release by the CW, Heaven and Hell are now in “complete disarray”, forcing Sam and Dean to reunite to “beat back the rising tide of creatures and demon-spawn” that “roam across a lawless and chaotic landscape. The season will jump ahead a year to “get some distance between [Sam and Dean], get some personal history for each of them” to allow for “new conflict, new circumstances, new stuff. The brothers roles will be reversed, with Dean now hesitant to return to the hunting lifesyle. The brothers will investigate why monsters have been “acting off-pattern.] The first few episodes will establish the new mythology. An episode spoofing Twilight and other vampire series is planned. as well as an “insane” storyline featuring Tinker Bell.
Filming for the season began with the Ackles-directed fourth episode, “Weekend at Bobby’s”, to give the actor enough time for preproduction. Misha Collins will return as series regular Castiel, as will Jim Beaver as Bobby Singer.] Mitch Pileggi will make multiple appearances as Sam and Dean’s grandfather..The recurring role of Christian, the maternal cousin of Sam and Dean, was given to Corin Nemec, he is described as “capable, calm under pressure, and very good at his job. Kim Rhodes will return as Sheriff Jody Mills, as will Fredric Lehne as Azazel.
