Last season's finale left 'Grimm' fans more than a little grim. Will things get better with 'Grimm' season 4?
Captain Renard was shot multiple times. Adalind (Claire Coffee) made Nick lose his powers (not to mention commit adultery unwittingly), which ultimately left Monroe (Silas Weir Mitchell) and Rosalee's (Bree Turner) wedding in chaos.
The daunting season three cliffhanger won't definitely be followed by rainbows and unicorns in the next season. The show's executive producer, David Greenwalt promised some unnerving twists and revelations for season four.
First off, fans can rest easy. Captain Renard won't be dying any time soon.
Sasha Roiz, who plays the captain, revealed to the Los Angeles Times' Hero Complex that he's "not really" dead and will come back for 'Grimm' season 4.
Hero Complex also reports that Renard's mysterious mother will make her appearance. Perhaps because her son's life is in danger? Whatever the reason, viewers will get to meet her this season, as well as discover the purpose of those mysterious keys Nick Burkhardt (David Guintoli) has been keeping.
"We have another key this year, and year 5 for sure, and we will answer what those d*mn set of keys mean and what they lead to," EP Greenwalt opened up about the keys.
Other developments include a new threat to the Grimms, targeting both Nick and Trubel which will leave the latter "in a very dire state." The octopus-like Wesen, Gedächtnis Esser or Octo-Man can take people's memories using his tentacles. He will leave his victims either badly hurt or dead as he steals their identity "in a very disgusting way."
"This guy is ruthless and sophisticated-a high-tech spy who is involved with some highly placed military intelligence personnel," Greenwalt said in a TVGuide interview.
Several questions still arise though, like will Officer Wu finally be privy to Nick's secret or will they deny him the truth again? Or will Monroe and Rosalee have a proper honeymoon? And what will Adalind do when she finds out that Prince Victor tricked her?
Find out when 'Grimm' season 4 premieres on October 24 on NBC.
