Criminal Minds is back, with its new series, Criminal Minds: Evolution! What's different? The cast of Criminal Minds is facing off against a whole new threat - a serial killer network! These villains used the COVID-19 pandemic as their opportunity. You will need to brace yourselves, because this time the action goes beyond just these criminals and puts all the BAU (Behavioral Analysis Unit) on edge.
There's been a lot of speculation if Spencer Reid, one of the show's most beloved characters, will return, since fans watched the show take an unexpected route!
Matthew Gray Gubler who plays this memorable role will not be returning to Criminal Minds: Evolution after the initial show ended. While there was hope, now there seems to be a definite shift in plans. Fans are going to need to accept it, or it appears that his iconic character is leaving the BAU. That leaves one question for everyone who's wondered why!
It's really a story about how Criminal Minds has captivated millions. While it ended in 2020 after 15 seasons and its epic finale on CBS. The show managed to bounce back!
A huge character who was absent was Reid. This prompted the idea, the theory that fans might get to see him. Unfortunately, as it looks from some of the recent updates about this show, his departure is permanent.
Now here's why his return isn't a possibility:
It looks like Gubler has an incredibly fun, creative opportunity that gives audiences a new take on him.
Fans may know that the show focuses on "Albert Einstein!" And that includes how this character has to take the steps needed, but as a consequence, this will keep him busy and probably unable to show up for Criminal Minds, or more specifically Criminal Minds: Evolution.
While we have the possibility of Gubler returning as a cameo or perhaps even recurring in "Criminal Minds.". That is due to the fact that his departure has given "Criminal Minds", the opportunity to give Reid a fantastic and heart-wrenching exit!
If you like a great story, and "Criminal Minds" is full of some interesting characters and dramatic twists. One of the reasons why fans continue to watch.
It seems as though these events are coming to a head! "Criminal Minds: Evolution has been creating a new chapter with many iconic and interesting storylines that fans love, including "The Unit" that makes these agents face off against some incredibly dark adversaries! But it looks like even without Reid. The BAU may just continue to offer a fresh, fun and incredibly powerful and thrilling series to make everyone come back for more.
For anyone that's a fan of "Criminal Minds", you will need to watch out for updates. Season "3" will be a huge chance for fans to keep their hopes alive that perhaps, Gubler will return. While the possibility of a big surprise may be over, it is not hard to imagine him coming back for some quick but meaningful moments in the series!
