As we wait for FBI: Most Wanted to return, we look at who could and who won’t return to the series. Will Kellan Lutz return in Season 5?

We just got word that Alexa Davalos is not returning to FBI: Most Wanted in Season 5. Now eyes are on who could take her place. Is it possible that Kristen Gaines will leave because Kenny Crosby is coming back to the team?

Kellan Lutz left the series during the third season premiere. We found out after the exit that it was both permanent and Lutz’s choice. After the loss of both his grandfathers, he wanted to move his family back out west instead of being in New York, which meant he couldn’t film the series.

Will Kellan Lutz return in FBI: Most Wanted Season 5?

What are the chances that we could get Crosby back with the team? This is unlikely, especially considering Lutz chose to leave the series to move across country. There aren’t any signs that he wants to return to the series, and he’s done minimal projects since leaving.

That being said, never say “never.”

Of course, the way Lutz’s character was written out is on the slightly more permanent side. Crosby was shot in the line of duty and needed extensive surgery to save him. He moved back with his parents for his recovery, leaving the Fugitive Task Force, and we were told it was going to be a long recovery process. It is possible that his recovery process has come to an end and he’s ready to return to work.

We just don’t see this happening. Of course, we have no idea about any plans just yet as the writers went on strike in May and that strike action is still ongoing.

FBI: Most Wanted is available to stream on Paramount+.
