TVLINE | Going into Season 10, what surprised you about Dean’s journey in the upcoming episodes?
Well, we have a slightly different version of Dean. A little bit of time has passed [at the start of Season 10], and he is a demon version of himself, out running amok with Crowley. It’s interesting because, over the past nine years, Dean has always been kind of a constant. Sam has really been the one that’s been possessed or [had] the demon blood or [been] soulless. There’s been a lot of different variations on the character of Sam, but Dean’s always been the steady, the constant. So to have that now change, and Dean is now an alternate version of himself, is exciting. It’s challenging, and it adds a unique element to the beginning of the season that we haven’t seen before.
TVLINE | What was the most challenging aspect of trying to incorporate a demon into Dean while still keeping him Dean?
Just that. [Laughs] Exactly what you said. That was the challenging aspect. It’s not like a demon that overtook Dean’s meat suit. This is the same guy with a twisted soul. So I wanted to keep Dean alive in there, but I had to make an exaggerated version of him, and that was challenging. This is a character that I’ve played for nine years. To tailor that into something different, it’s hard not to fall back into your same routine.

Demon Dean is going to be awesome.
ReplyDeleteIf demon!Dean is only introduced in the third episode, I wonder what version of him we'll see in the first two. Maybe in Sam's memories.
ReplyDeleteNo, he was just saying they shot the third episode first because he was directing. Dean is definitely in the first two episodes.
ReplyDeleteBut he also said that the first time he had to play demon!Dean was in the episode that he directed, which is the one that'll air third like you said.
ReplyDeleteRight, they shot it first. Now they are shooting episode 1 or 2 and Jensen will be playing Demon Dean in both of those. Because this was shot first, it was the first time Jensen PLAYED Demon Dean, but since it is shown third it will not be the first time we SEE Demon Dean.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like Jensen is enjoying getting the chance to do something different with his character, which is a good thing.
ReplyDeleteOhhhhh! I get it now. Thank you :) My bad.
ReplyDeletePoor Sam has to be the pointless buzz kill
