The cast of 'Jane the Virgin' was just as blown away by that twist as we all are
Jane the Virgin Twitter went WILD on Friday night. Spoilers ahead.
The show's fourth season ended with a major reveal: Michael Cordero, a character that's been dead since just before a time jump skipped the story ahead by three years back in Season 3.
So for Jane -- who was married to Michael -- and the people in her orbit, they've all lived on for the past four or five years in TV time believing this man is dead. Then he turned up in the final moments of Season 4.
We still don't know what happened or how this believed-dead man is actually alive. Season 5 will presumably clear that up. For now, you'll have to live with the incredible reaction on social media. Starting with a post from showrunner Jennie Urman offering a behind the scenes look at the cast learning that Michael actor Brett Dier was coming back.
