WARNING: This article has spoilers for the 12th season finale of Supernatural. "The Devil You Know" - Mark Sheppard as Crowley in SUPERNATURAL on The CW.Photo: Michael Courtney/The CW©2010 Fan favorite Mark Sheppard won't be returning to Supernatural, TV Line reported. From the fifth season to the twelfth season, Mark Sheppard has played a major role on Supernatural as Crowley. Crowley was a roguishly charming but completely untrustworthy demon, a human sinner who was sent to Hell when he died, became a Crossroads Demon, worked his way up to King of the Crossroads, and eventually took advantage of a power vacuum when Lucifer had a bit of bad luck and made himself King of Hell. In the twelfth season finale, "All Along the Watchtower," written by Andrew Dabb, Crowley's character was killed. Normally on a show like Supernatural, being killed is more of a minor inconvenience than anything else. The dead don't necessarily stay dead. This time, the death appears to be real and Sheppard seems adamant that he will not be returning to Supernatural. Co-Executive Producer Jim Michaels hinted that Mark Sheppard might return. "Never say never." Sheppard contradicted him on Twitter. He also said he would not be attending Creation Cons after December. Sheppard has not said whether or not he will be attending fan-run conventions. https://twitter.com/Mark_Sheppard/status/867566400348356608 "This is starting to sound like Mark Sheppard's departure from Supernatural wasn't amicable," suggested science fiction convention organizer Pearl Stickler. https://www.youtube.com/watch?vLlc5rlB3e6M Sheppard is a musician as well as an actor. Now that he is no longer playing Crowley on Supernatural, he wants to get back to his first love, music. He's played the drums with Robyn Hitchcock, the Barracudas, Light a Big Fire, School of Fish, and Louden Swain (featuring fellow Supernatural actor Rob Benedict). Now he's rejoining Robyn Hitchcock on tour, with Luther Russell on guitar and Tony Buchen on bass. Sheppard told Audix he was delighted to be rejoining Robyn Hitchcock, whom he had played drums for "when I was 17 and now I am playing with him 35 years later—it’s an extraordinary experience. And I’m obviously a much better drummer than at 15. It’s fun to do. It is so cool.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v5w43oOmjozI Crowley is far from Mark Sheppard's first science fiction/fantasy role. It would be easier to tally up the genre shows he hasn't been on that to count the ones he has appeared in as a guest or a regular. Of 62 acting roles credited to him on IMDB.com, 22 have been for genre shows (23 if you count the MacGyver reboot). 1993 ** The X-Files ** Cecil L'Ively 1995 ** M.A. N. T. I. S. ** C.
