Dabb and Misha both said Misha hasn't been told the ending, Dabb even made a 'joke' about how Misha isn't one of "the actors that matter" (which set the minions' hair on fire lol). Twitter links: (Misha) aIohacowboy/status/1153272939841802241 (Dabb) danneelsbitch/status/1154465993558765568 Misha also said in the panel that he's a regular on the show, so now the minions have decided there are no leads and they're all regulars lol.
IMO It’s a minor miracle that they let Jared and Jensen know the ending waaaaaay ahead of time.
And…
Technically Alohacowboy is correct, based on the SAG-AFTRA pay tiers J2 and Alex are regulars because they are paid regardless of appearing. Deansbaby79 is not correct because Misha is not a regular, in my unpopular opinion his status and pay tier is that of a recurring with a standing contract. Misha was a regular for half of his 10 years on the show, so he had accomplished his goal according to his Comic Con panel.
See what Alohacowboy did? She didn’t dispute Deansbaby79 that Misha is a regular even though he’s not, and said J2 and Alex are regulars, which they are.
so now the minions have decided there are no leads and they’re all regulars lol.
Jared and Jensen are regulars and the series leads. SAG-AFTRA have workshops called “How to Win a Series Lead Before It Goes to Casting” (example here) because leads are vitals to the success of a non-ensemble shows. If it needs repeating, SPN is not an ensemble show, never was and never is. Misha never was a third lead.
But the best part of the thread was this…
Sure, that’s the only explanation. Not that Dean is straight, Cas likes female boobs, and Misha constantly queerbaits teases regardless.
Mom, I’ve made it! I’ve been screencapped! And I’m “technically...correct” 😂
(I didn’t dispute deansbaby79 about Misha because Misha appears in the same section of the credits as J2 and Alex. Suggesting the same status. But hey, if you have info I don’t, I’m all ears.)
