The Originals: Who's Recurring? Who's Returning?

at .

Todd Stashwick is on his way back to The CW.

The actor, remembered by many fans of the network as a Dracula-like shapeshifter on Supernatural, will recur on The Originals this fall as a priest named Father Kiernan.

According to EW, he will debut in the role on Episode 4 of Season 1.

“Kieran is a tortured Priest with a dark past,” previews executive producer Julie Plec. ”Once a powerful and pragmatic diplomat between the humans and the various supernatural factions in New Orleans, he returns home looking for answers about a personal tragedy but finds a very different landscape than when he left.”

The actor has also appeared on The Exes, Grey's Anatomy and Hawaii Five-0.

Elsewhere, Sebastian Roche - who Vampire Diaries viewers met as patriarch Mikael - will appear in an early episode of The Originals.

The highly anticipated new drama premieres on October 3.
