so it's true that....
john druitt is officially dead?? do you think they'll have an episode to actually tie up his storyline?
shareOMg I don't know!!! I didn't think he was dead. Actually I've been waiting all season for him to return because I love the Magnus/Druitt tension. Magnus has died like three times, Will is up around five, so I just assumed Druitt was fine after last season. Then I read this interview with Christopher Heyerdahl and he says Druitt is dead.
What?!?!?!? I'm so depressed.
But it's sci fi so nothing's keeping him from coming back.

But in this interview Amanda said she doesn't know what happened to Druitt, so I think TPTB have yet decided his fate, which I think will be addressed in Season 5, if there is one.
This is the link to the interview:

She sounded like Druitt isn't dead. As was the case with AD, I think CH was filming other stuff this past season so he wasn't as available.
The part of the interview that worried me is that in the past the series has been renewed by now.
CH was off playing the Swede in Hell on Wheels so I guess they had to adjust his schedule. At any rate, they can still find a way to bring him back.
Carl: I stabbed him 37 times in the chest
Paul: Carrlll that KILLS people!
"CH was off playing the Swede in Hell on Wheels so I guess they had to adjust his schedule. At any rate, they can still find a way to bring him back."
Erhm, what? You do realize that CH plays both Big Guy and Druitt in this show? Two characters, not one. And Big Guy appears in nearly ever episode, so something like a "schedule conflict" definitely could not exist!
Oh yay that makes me so happy (that Amanda Tapping says Druitt's not dead.) I was really surprised when Christopher Heyerdahl said he was, but now I feel better. Yay Sanctuary!
shareI'm kinda confused... I thought the last time we saw Druitt, he was just standing in the ruins of Hollow Earth, left behind when Magnus followed Worth backward to 1898.
Surely he could have just teleported out of there? I know there were some SPOTS in Hollow Earth that dampened his power, but couldn't he have walked around until he found a spot with 'better reception'? I thought Kate was down IN Hollow earth, rebuilding.. so it's not a DEADLY area?
I don't like the fact they'd just kinda TWEET that "Oh; by the way, Druitt died." He was just about my favorite character on the show.. so I will be pretty annoyed if that's just 'it' for Druitt.
Have I missed something in an ep? I didn't watch "Fugue"...
Sometimes fires don't go out when you're done playin' with them.
I'm surprised that would have killed him too. But they killed Bigfoot, his other character, so perhaps the actor decided to leave the show.
sharePerhaps not.
Biggie is a regular character and Druitt isn't. So if CH does want to spend more time on Hell on Wheels and keep showing up on Sanctuary at the same time it would be better for him to cast as Druitt then Biggie.
Did they really kill Biggie? For me it felt as if they deliberately left it ambigious. Biggie wasn't dead in the last scene we saw it, so he could be alive. :)
shareBiggie looked pretty dead. I thought they had dumped his body in the Sanctuary and then Magnus blew the place up.
I think the actor must have some other commitments that conflict with filming Sanctuary. But if those commitments don't pan out and the show is renewed, I'm sure they could work around Druitt/Biggie being dead.
