UPD: Если уже есть видео с панели Doctor Who, которая, согласно программе, закончилась в 11, то и нам, возможно, не придется мучаться до вечера? Это было бы классно.

Back to Lucifer being "hot," producers wanted him "to be like everyone else on the show."
Surprisingly it sounds like Lucifer will be less of a jerk than archangels.

Guest stars this season include Mark Pellegrino, Stephen Williams, Rachel Miner and a returning Adrianne Palicki.

про Каса!

And let’s not forget about Castiel. Misha Collins says that he will be on the run with Sam Dean as they will all be hunted by angels and demons alike. Castiel will also have less powers than he did in season four after being “fired” as an angel.

Описание первых пяти минут премьерной серии (часть)

шиперы динокастиэлей могут быть счастливы

The clip was of Dean and Sam turning up at Chuck's place (Chuck hits Sam in the head with a plunger thinking that he's an enemy and Chuck says "You're okay!" and Sam gets all frowny and indignant and points out "Well, my head hurts!") and Chuck tells them that Cas is "dead", Dean doesn't believe him at first and asks if Chuck's sure he didn't just "disappear into the light" but Chuck is certain that he got vaporised like a "water balloon full of chunky soup" I believe might have been the phrase he used (there's one of Castiel's molars stuck in Chuck's hair and he's totally freaked out by it) - Dean totally tears up and is all, "damnit Cas, you stupid bastard" getting himself killed for them, he was TOTES heartbroken!

Кусочек о Касе из интервью Крипке журналистам - просто более расширенная версия предыдущих высказываний.

Question: Can you comment at all on Castiel’s decision at the end to defy?

EK: Uh, he’s totally, totally screwed in season five. You’ll even see it at the clip at the panel if you have a chance to check that out. Things didn’t end well with him and the archangel that came down, uh I can say this, certainly throughout episode 1 he is dead and exploded into glorious smithereens, and uh, if you notice, he’s in the room (Misha was at another table) so I wouldn’t sweat it too much. And so he’s on the run, he’s fallen, they’re hunting him down, he’s cut off from where he was, he’s now sort of lost and scared and alone with the guys and everyone’s totally boned as they’re trying to stop the apocalypse from happening. There’s basically about four good guys against the entire universe trying to stop the apocalypse.


# Jim teased that Bobby had an interesting scenario coming up -- but that he couldn't talk about it. So of course, the guys immediately started joking that it involved the unrequited love that Castiel has for Bobby. "Does this mean the Castiel/Dean love affair is ending?" Moderator Mo Ryan joked. "Dean's no competition," Jim growled.

Транскрипт панели СПН с Комик Кона (обратите внимание в самом начале на ответ Миши по поводу переднего или заднего сидения )

I was really excited about covering the Supernatural panel not just because of the fan base of this show, but also because the moderator was the delightful Maureen Ryan, television critic for the Chicago Tribune. The ScriptPhD has admired Maureen’s work for a long time, and it was a pleasure to meet and chat with you, Mo! Keep up the great work.

Eric Kripke: Castiel is coming back, I’m happy to say. We spent five minutes talking about wardrobe, do we do a catsuit for him. He’s back in his catsuit.

Maureen Ryan: So that begs the question: front seat or back seat?

Misha Collins: He as a special respirator to sit in the trunk. He’s going to breathe through a straw with a periscope.

Maureen Ryan: How do you solve problem like Lucifer? This guy is out to do some damage, but he’s all about herbal teas and feelings and sharing? He’s a softer, kinder Lucifer.

Eric Kripke: Yes, but we wanted to present a Lucifer that hasn’t been seen on TV and movies often. We’re shamelessly stealing from the beginning of Paradise Lost. He’s a sympathetic devil with a point of view. He was betrayed by those closest to him, and has a definite chip on shoulder. It’s a little personal. He’s the most honest of all the characters. Of course, there is that thing about ending the world, but otherwise, we’re trying to do a complicated Lucifer, where the angels can be dicks and Lucifer can be sympathetic.

Misha Collins: Except me.

Maureen Ryan: What does bobby think of all this? Is he going to pull out a can of whoop ass on boys?

Jim Beaver: Bobby has a very interesting scenario. I wish I could tell you about it, but I can’t because the real Lucifer [Kripke] is sitting by me.

Maureen Ryan: I am hearing that maybe Castiel and Bobby have an upcoming scene or two. They’re becoming buddies.

Misha Collins: It’s more of a romantic type thing.

Jim Beaver: On or off camera? It’s an unrequited thing for Castiel. Very unrequited.

Maureen Ryan: You’re going to separate the love affair of Dean/Castiel. There’s an apocalypse going on, things are crazy. Kind of a team building enterprise. Are we going to see any old friends or enemies coming out of the woodwork?

Sera Gamble: Definitely old friends. Because of the apocalypse, old hunters are coming out of trenches, like Rufus, who kind of thought he was over the hunting thing, and Ellen, who wasn’t even a hunter, but decided that she has to get into it to back up her daughter Jo. You will see all of them in episode 2.

Maureen Ryan: And Meg. You said we might see her in more than one episode.

Eric Kripke: Yes, you’ll see her in the season opener, and she’s played by Rachel Minor. We struggled with how to put her in Nikki Cox’s cat suit, because she’s buried and rotten, her hair is a different length, but Rachel does a terrific job at it. I’m borderline OCD and I want to fill every pothole. The Croatoan virus is paying out in episode four.

Ben Edlund: In episode four we go into the future. It’s five years into the apocalypse, and we wanted to blow the doors off the world. One thing is Sarah Palin is president. It’s the apocalypse, what do you want?

Eric Kripke: In all seriousness, it’s our 28 Days Later episode. You can see the end of the world with Ben’s sensibility. It’s really really cool.

Maureen Ryan: I think we have some old business to address. What did Ruby know, and was she tricking Sam?

Eric Kripke: From her first introduction in “Magnificent Seven” and then the first time you saw her talk, she was always a bad guy. We, the producers, always knew that her motivation was to double cross the boys, she was always working for the demons. It made us frustrated to read online chatter and debate about that, but in our back pocket we knew she was evil and yet couldn’t tell anyone about it. We kept trying to make her likeable, but there was that problem that she’s a demon. And you can never entirely trust a demon.

Maureen Ryan: Who changed the voicemail message in the finale?

Eric Kripke: I’m not going to tell you, because I think it’s interesting and open for debate. Some things are fun to talk about and discuss. I have my belief of it but I don’t think I’ll ever say. We always talk about it on set.

Maureen Ryan: What’s the relationship between the boys like at this point? Under the circumstances, it can be a downer for that.

Sera Gamble: Actually, the apocalypse is shockingly amusing. Last season we had some funny episodes, but at times the show was almost suicidally dark. This season we’re in the worst situation you can be in, and yet it’s kind of funny at points. It’s pretty bonkers, we’re enjoying it.

Eric Kripke: As far as the boys’ relationship, the network executives called us and said “Oh you’re doing the apocalypse. Aren’t you afraid it will be ohhhhh… I don’t know… depressing?” But I said yes, the situation is what it is, but hilariously enough this is the most optimistic season we’ve ever done. We pent all last season tearing the guys apart and this is the season they come back together. Family is going to save the world and when you’re in this big story, for once you can aim at the good guys winning, it’s very Polyanna in its tone.

Maureen Ryan: Let’s talk about Castiel’s arc. What’s his status? Is he the same guy? Same abilities?

Misha Collins: Yeah, I think it’s been some of my best work so far. Yes, I think he’s different. When you’re blown molar by molar into someone’s hair, it changes you. He lost a bit of his angel mojo, he lost some friends, and has a very ambitious mission he’s on, it’ll be very satisfying for you.

Eric Kripke: But yeah, it’s kind of an epic arc. He’s cut off from heaven and in full-on rebellion mode. But he goes through his own mythology arc and emotionally at that. Castiel must become human in a way, he’s not an etherial angel anymore. One teaser title from an upcoming episode: Dean Takes Cast to a Whorehouse.

Maureen Ryan: I heard some talk that you only wanted to do five seasons, but I’d be happy with six or more. Care to comment?

Eric Kripke: Here’s the honest answer to that. Because I have very low self esteem, I never dreamed Supernatural would even go five years, and now that it keeps picking up steam I’m shocked. If there’s more stories to tell, then it’s a real possibility. But right now, we are thinking of ourselves as base camp on Everest. We are just finishing writing episode 3 and breaking episode 6, and we have 16 more after that, so we’re kind of neck deep in Season 5. We’ll see.

Maureen Ryan: So this apocalypse Lucifer thing, you won’t stretch that beyond the season?

Eric Kripke: No, we have a five year story, and we’re in the fifth year of that. We owe it to you the fans to not water it down, dilute it, or stretch it beyond that. We just want to tell the story. We don’t need to go down endless mystery on top of mystery. But another chapter can certainly begin. We’ll see with everything.

Fan: Jim and Misha, what’s it like knowing you’re just as important as Jensen and Jared’s characters?

Misha Collins: Well, it would be great.

Jim Beaver: Who are Jensen and Jared?

Misha Collins: Yeahhhh, it’s nice to have a supporting cast like Jared and Jensen. They really are just a great supporting base line for fleshing out stories that everyone cares about. [laughter]

Fan: Will Castiel get to help out on any monster of the week hunts and what’s the dynamic like after what happened?

Misha Collins: Yes and dynamic is awkward, to say the least.

Fan: Had you always intended to take the show in this direction or have things developed over time?

Eric Kripke: We tend to start these things with cocktail napkin sketch of a five year plan. And in our case, the plan was always driven by demon side of it. So yes, progression of the demon ladder of the dark side and the apocalypse was pre-planned. But to say there will never be angels would have been a mistake for us. That’s one of the coolest part of the show. We didn’t have the rebellion. And thank god, it totally rejuvenated season 4. So the angels did evolve with the process.

Fan: One of my favorite things about the show is the music, but it’s really dropped off. Is it coming back?

Eric Kripke: I know, it hurts us too. It all comes down to the budget. You have to pay for rights, which can be expensive. Production value takes precedent. So we used to have a particular music budget for the show, and we had to cut the music budget in half. It used to be one song every episode, then it started getting to be one song every other episode, one every third, you get the idea. Sometimes we’re so over budget and irresponsible, that’s the casualty. It’s literally where one song makes the difference between getting to shoot the episode.

Fan: Erik, you teased about looking at the future. Will the idea of destiny be addressed? Can you change your destiny?

Ben Edlund: That’s the question of the episode. Destiny is one of the key themes of the show. We’re planning on some mind-bending loops. Can you avoid destiny, what you already know is going to happen, by the choices you make?

Maureen Ryan: How much will we see Mark Pellegrino?

Eric Kripke: He is currently shooting episodes 1 and 3, and then won’t see him for a while. I know he’s on Lost and bad-ass as Jacob. He was actually in the running for Castiel—it was between Misha and Mark, and they were both so great, but Misha squeaked by. But we always loved Mark and remembered him, so went right to him when the part of Lucifer came about.

Fan: When you go through the writing process, how do you go from ideas to episodes?

Sera Gamble: Coffee mostly. It’s like American Idol—the strongest ideas win. If they survive, they end up on the TV screen, but they must survive with the long hours we work.

Fan: At the beginning of season, we were first introduced to mythology. Have you received any backlash about themes of angels and demonds, and how does that criticism fuel the stories?

Eric Kripke: surprisingly little. Every so often you see an individual saying they don’t love it, but by and large…

Sera Gamble: We don’t have agenda to criticize or push any one religion. These ideas have been done before and have entranced people for one millennium, and it’s general.

Eric Kripke: Sometimes we laugh about sacrilege that we might be doing, but we’re not the first to ask about God’s will, about a benevolent God letting bad things happen. That’s not new, provocative material. We just happen to be asking it on our horror show on CW. One of our writers is good friends with a priest who loves the show, and loves what we’re doing. He’s interested that a show is even attempting it.

Fan: Is there a chance we’ll see the cult God return?

Ben Edlund: I think so, yes. The rumor and myth and legend of the cult doesn’t go away, you’ll see it come around.

Fan: Misha, based on personal beliefs, how did you prepare for playing a morally gray angel?

Misha Collins: I set my personal beliefs aside. Castiel hasn’t been walking among humans for 2000 years, so he has a curiosity about humanity. It’s been an interesting question. What does it mean to be human? Not many roles allow you to explore that in depth.

Fan: The meta-episode, what made you decide to do that?

Eric Kripke: No, we just love navel-gazing. It was writers’ assistant Nancy Weiner’s idea, totally. She wanted to do a stranger than fiction episode, in which their characters find out they’re in a book. At first we were like, “No, that’s crazy! We’re not going to do that.” But the idea kept floating around, we couldn’t shake it. Then it just snapped into focus, because it tied into the mythology. I have such a complicated relationship with the online fandom, I’m very attracted to poking loving fun of them.

Fan: Are we going to find out what happened to John?

Eric Kripke: Jeffrey Dean Morgan is a huge star now, in case you haven’t noticed. We’d love to explore that and have him, but it’s about scheduling.

Maureen Ryan: But the boys’ mom? Will we see what happens to her?

Eric Kripke: Samantha is awesome! She was sort of in episode 21. But I can definitely say Jessica is coming back.

Fan: Are you ever going to distribute official soundtrack for show?

Eric Kripke: This really is not the first time we have heard this question. We took the idea to record companies, but they were not interested. So we pitched it out, and our music supervisor is great, but she was met with a big fat middle finger. We’re rying to put together a “virtual album” playlist on iTunes so you can at least download it. We keep saying we’re going to do it, but then we get back home to Los Angeles and forget. But this time around we’re going to do it.
