Criminal Minds: Evolution Season 3 is finished and, whereas no extra new episodes of the Paramount+ revival might be airing on the 2025 TV schedule, there’s nonetheless excellent news. The sequence has already been renewed for Season 4, that means the BAU might be again for extra adventures in some unspecified time in the future. The group will not be alone, both. Zach Gilford’s Elias Voit can also be returning to the fold and, after showrunner Erica Messer teased what’s in retailer for him, I’m excited concerning the promise she made.
Voit has been inflicting bother for the group for the reason that begin of Evolution and, regardless of Season 3 lastly shifting again into the unsub-of-the-week format, Voit nonetheless didn’t go away. He stays the one unsub who has been on the present persistently for 3 consecutive seasons, whether or not he’s an asset for the FBI or working towards the group. He’s definitely grow to be a personality that viewers like to hate and perhaps even hate to like. On that be aware, Messer just lately advised Entertainment Weekly how Voit might be concerned in Season 4:
The extra we talked, we thought we had yet one more season to essentially discover another stuff with him and the group. You are going to see him in each episode of season 19. He’s a prisoner once more, however in a really completely different approach than he was in season 17. He might be a useful resource for us.
So the EP promised that Voit might be in each single episode of Season 4, and that is definitely a game-changing improvement! That is very true when you think about what he was nonetheless able to in Season 3 when he was within the hospital. Viewers noticed him assist the BAU in a Hannibal Lecter arc whereas in jail, but it surely seems like issues might be completely different shifting ahead.
What makes this all very attention-grabbing is that the group is aware of what to anticipate from Voit and how you can get below his pores and skin to be able to actually use him. Whereas there’s not telling what precisely might be in retailer come Season 4, Messer name-dropped a notable serial killer whereas teasing Voit’s additional improvement in future episodes:
The trajectory of that character was that he was off the radar, no person even knew he existed as a killer. He actually buried all of his secrets and techniques within the floor. He is now like Ted Bundy, and that is going to get some consideration that he needs he did not have. We have Voit in custody now as a star, basically.
At this level, followers are possible acquainted with Voit’s twisted nature and manipulative tendencies. He is performed so many horrible issues, and the BAU has him at their disposal. Nonetheless, it in all probability received’t be really easy attending to to the underside of the numerous secrets and techniques that he holds, together with the main points about this complete serial killer community. Nonetheless, with the character showing in each episode subsequent season, the writers ought to have loads of time to essentially dig into the assorted elements of Voit, which is a prospect that excites me.
Manufacturing on Season 4 of Criminal Minds: Evolution, which is the 19th general season of Criminal Minds, kicked off in Could, with loads of returning stars readily available. As for any returning visitor stars, which may be a bit trickier, as Messer beforehand defined how sophisticated it’s locking down actors months prematurely. Because the producer defined, it is powerful to write down for a particular character (performed by a significant actor) months prematurely when you do not know what their schedule might be when filming begins.
It would nonetheless be some time till a premiere date for Criminal Minds: Evolution Season 4 is introduced however, for proper now, I am simply happy figuring out that Elias Voit’s function is about to develop. In the meantime, followers can stream all seasons of Criminal Minds, together with Evolution, with a Paramount+ subscription now.
