'Jane the Virgin' Showrunner Sheds More Light On If That Was Really [Spoiler] Who Returned in Season 4 Finale

Our jaws actually dropped to the floor when we watched the season four finale of Jane The Virgin over the weekend – and we know yours did too – because Michael (Brett Dier) is back!

The first we thought was that this was Michael’s long lost twin or something – however, showrunner Jennie Snyder-Urman reveals it’s not.

“It’s not a twin,” she shared with TVGuide. “We’re not doing another twin. The question of ‘is it really Michael?’ will be the season opener and be resolved in the season opener.”

And it looks like it’s not just the fans who are shocked about Michael’s return, but also the characters.

“It’s suspicion meets with shock meets with the place Michael is currently in — and I’m calling him Michael for the sake of this conversation,” she shared. “It’s a few things working together that will cause a lot of the drama when we come back.”

Jennie also says that his return plays more into the love triangle the show first started out with Jane, Michael and Rafael.

“I liked for Rafael, he did something very selfless, bringing him back even though he knew it would risk his relationship,” she says. “That’s always been his biggest fear: ‘If Michael was here, would Jane choose me?’”

Jane the Virgin will return this fall on The CW for its’ final season.
