Season 4 of Sullivan’s Crossing is already weathering the loss of Scott Patterson‘s fan-favorite character — but did the show just lose another main cast member?
In a clip posted to the show’s social media on Thursday, April 2, Lola (Amalia Williamson) is seen confiding in Maggie (Morgan Kohan) and Sydney (Lindura Sappong) about potentially leaving the area.
“Maybe losing my internship isn’t such a bad thing after all,” she shared in the sneak peek. “Now there’s nothing stopping me from visiting Jacob in Calgary.”
Lola admitted that the “summer fling” turned into something more, adding, “I didn’t realize how much I’d actually miss him. He invited me to collect samples with him in the Rockies — and I’ve never been outside of Nova Scotia before.”
“We will miss you, Lola,” read the caption for the post, which also included the text, “Is this goodbye?”
Viewers — at least the ones in the U.S. — will have to wait until later this month to get more clarity on Williamson’s future on the show. While some social media users took to the comments to question if Lola would be temporarily absent amid Williamson’s pregnancy, others expressed frustration that they wouldn’t get an immediate answer about the character’s future on the hit series.
Sullivan’s Crossing originally returned March 22 on CTV. After airing in Canada, the show will follow up with April 20, 2026, on The CW and then on Netflix, presumably in the summer once the show wraps up on cable.
Before its premiere, Us Weekly broke the news in March that Patterson, 67, would not be reprising his role as Sully when season 4 returns.
“Season 3 of Sullivan’s Crossing ended with Sully leaving for Ireland, beginning a new chapter in his life. Season 4 picks up the next day, with Sully still overseas,” Sullivan’s Crossing executive producer and showrunner Roma Roth exclusively told Us. “While he isn’t physically present in this season, the character remains an important part of the world with the potential to be included in future seasons should that align with the ongoing creative.”
In response, Patterson hinted at what caused his surprising departure, writing via Instagram, “The creative differences were becoming untenable and I just sadly realized that the show was not something that I could agree to continue.”
Patterson clarified it wasn’t his choice to leave Sullivan’s Crossing.
“It’s unfortunate that it is now being implied that they moved on from me/Sully when the fact is the complete opposite, and those who sadly already have spoken out are also fully aware of this fact, and yet chose to say otherwise,” he continued. “I was not intending to make any statement but the fans of the books and the show deserve to know the truth as I have always been respectful of those who support this industry by watching and loving these characters we are so dang lucky and blessed to portray and bring to life.”
Seasons 1 through 3 of Sullivan’s Crossing are currently streaming on Netflix. Season 4 premieres on The CW April 20 at 8 p.m. ET
