How to Watch Sullivan’s Crossing Season 4 After Cast Exit
CTV’s “Sullivan’s Crossing” has made a comeback for its fourth season, but not without some major changes. The show, based on Robyn Carr’s book series, follows neurosurgeon Maggie as she navigates life in her hometown in rural Nova Scotia. With the introduction of characters like her estranged father Sully and newcomer Cal, the community of Sullivan’s Crossing has captured the hearts of viewers.
The fourth season of “Sullivan’s Crossing” premiered on March 22, 2026, on CTV, followed by its airing on The CW on April 20, 2026. Fans can expect to catch up on the latest season on Netflix once it wraps up on cable, likely during the summer months.
However, the return of the show comes with the news of a shocking exit from the cast. Scott Patterson, who portrayed Sully, will not be reprising his role in season 4. The character of Sully was written off the show as he embarked on a new journey in Ireland, leaving behind a void in the Sullivan’s Crossing community.
Executive producer and showrunner Roma Roth revealed that while Sully may be absent physically in season 4, his presence will still be felt as an integral part of the world of the show. Roth hinted at the possibility of Sully making a return in future seasons if it aligns with the creative direction of the series.
In response to his departure, Patterson took to Instagram to address the situation, expressing his fondness for the character of Sully and the show. He clarified that it was not his decision to leave “Sullivan’s Crossing” and cited creative differences as the reason for his exit. Patterson emphasized his respect for the fans of the books and the show, stating that they deserve to know the truth behind his departure.
Despite the unexpected turn of events, Patterson expressed his love for the character of Sully and the depth he brought to the role. He reassured fans that he had always fought for the character and was dedicated to portraying him with authenticity and respect.
As the show moves forward without Patterson, fans can expect to see how the absence of Sully impacts the dynamic of Sullivan’s Crossing. With new challenges and storylines unfolding, the community will have to come together to navigate the changes that lie ahead. The truth behind Patterson’s departure may shed light on the future direction of the show and the fate of its beloved characters.
