Castle Season 7 to Focus on Rick, Tighten the Caskett Bond

Yes, Castle Season 6 ended without your favorite couple getting married, due to a very poorly timed car accident involving a certain beloved authors.
But new showrunner David Amann tells TV Line that Castle and Beckett will be doing just fine when we see them again.
"They are deeply in love and they have overcome a great many challenges already,” Amann says.“So whatever [has happened] is not going to tear them apart. If anything, it will make them stronger."
It will also allow Amann and producer/former showrunner Andrew Marlowe to turn the focus toward Rick for a bit.
"We’re not looking to significantly alter the trajectory of their relationship or pull the rug out from under the audience," Marlowe assures fans.
"We’re looking to open up some really interesting aspects of storytelling for the Castle character, who hasn’t been as deeply explored as Beckett over the past six years."
Castle Season 7 premieres Monday, Sept. 29 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.
