This would imply that McHattie will be making an appearance in episode 4 of the next chapter. It would be a great way of tipping a hat to the original series which McHattie was a part of.

While not much is known about the next season, the primary theme has been emphasized upon.

The executive producer of the CW series, Brad Kern, has also spoken about the what fans can expect from the next chapter of the show in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.

Kern revealed that season 3 would focus on Catherine (Kristin Kreuk) and Vincent's (Jay Ryan) love.

"Now that we have the loyal audience, the goal is to make it more Cat-Vincent centric," he said. "We'll continue to build the mythology. Everything else will service and work around that love."

In an interview, Austin Basis, who plays J.T. on the show, spoke about how his relationship with Tess would play off of Vincent and Catherin's relationship on the CW series. He suggested that the couples will have more to figure out as they navigate a steady love life with the grave dangers that surround them. Basis suggested that this will also push them to work independently more as a unit of two.

"Everyone's kind of been a team of four and now they are two teams of two. I think that will be fun to see," he said. "Learning from the mistakes of the path that we've gone down before, the writers and the show to stick to the heart of the show about Vincent and Catherine and their romance and how their romance is tested."

The season 2 finale, Deja Vu aired on The CW at 8 p.m. on July 7.
