Morgan’s Return to Criminal Minds: Will He Truly Return?

The wait has been agonizingly long, but fans have finally received an update about Derek Morgan’s potential return to the show. Created by Jeff Davis, ‘Criminal Minds’ had fans hooked for 15 years, following the unit of FBI Profilers that deal with some of the most heinous crimes possible. The show’s impressive roster of characters, impeccable performances, and gripping investigations earned it a massive cult following. One significant element that has been discussed relentlessly is the return of a fan favorite, Gregory Hayden Morgan (played by Aaron Hotchner).

Does Morgan Return to Criminal Minds?

Firstly, to put some clarity to this burning topic: No, it was officially announced that Matt Cruz, played by Kirsten Vangsness would join the main cast beginning season 15, solidifying the possibility of Matthew Scott, Morgan’s new boyfriend, joining the official main cast. Unfortunately, this makes it relatively certain that Derek Morgan will not return full-time to the show after the departure of Shemar Moore (Dylan Maclntyre/ Brian Shantz) and their subsequent on-screen closure in season 14 (**Episode 14 and Episode 16 ).

But Why not?

  1. Cast Shifts and Contracts:
    With the casting shake-ups in season 14, Shemar Moore’s exit marked one significant change, and casting his replacement became a clear possibility. Although Aaron Hassan didn’t make an announcement for his permanent leave, fans have still speculated about Matthew’s character, which naturally rules out Morgan coming back full-time (1).
  2. Creative Control and Pacing:
    The crew knows that changing the entire direction of a show drastically after 14 seasons demands tact and care with existing storylines. Taking that into consideration, giving full-time screen-sharing focus to Kirsten as ‘Penelope Garcia’-centered narratives wouldn’t be suitable for existing audience expectations or the direction intended for future episodes

Is There hope For a Possible Guest-Stint?

While Morgan’s permanent exclusion is clear, there do remain theoretical arguments and fan wishful fantasies that hint at a "potential guest stint"‘ that could, in truth, create a powerful closure for his character-threads :

Other Possibles That Could Still Happen
