Michael is Going To Turn Jane's Life Upside Down on 'Jane The Virgin'

Tonight’s the premiere of the final season of Jane the Virgin and we’re about to get all our answers about the return of Michael answered.

Showrunner Jennie Snyder Urman chatted with TV Guide about the comeback of the character, played by Brett Dier, into Jane’s (Gina Rodriguez) life.

“His return just turns [Jane’s] life upside down in every single way,” she shared. “The events of the finale and that last image of this person…is ostensibly Michael—you will find out right away if it is or isn’t Michael, and it throws everything into flux, every character into flux.”

She adds, “It affects the whole season. It really sets us up on our arc for the season.”

How does that change Jane and Rafael’s (Justin Baldoni) relationship, if at all?

“What I can say is that the selfless act of Rafael bringing Michael back, hearing that Michael is alive and bringing him back to her, is a sacrifice and a move that I don’t think Season 1 Rafael would have done.”

Jennie continues, “The selflessness of it is romantic for Jane. But the events of the finale resonate throughout this whole [season].”

Jane the Virgin is back TONIGHT @ 9PM ET/PT on The CW.
