I would not be surprised if he was not a regular any longer. In Season 2, they raised Meghan Ory from supporting to regular, then by the end of the season, she had departed for other shows, and has only had a couple of appearances since. (I really miss Ruby).

However, unlike when Meghan left, the departure of Michael would leave a very big hole in the storyline. One that, from a fan perspective, needs some closure. What happened after the Wonderland finale (but prior to the part of the Finale where Alice shows Will and Ana as the White King and Queen)?

TVLine is a reliable source. They're just saying Socha will not be a series regular anymore, not that he leaves the show. He will still continue to appear but as a guest star. Good to know about TVLine. I'll put the salt up on that source. :-D

My only thought is we all know what happens to the roles that are not either Series Regulars or Guest Stars. They tend to disappear into the gray area of limbo, and who knows if they'll ever see the light of day again.

I understand that the actors associated with these roles have a job, and if they aren't getting paid in job A, then they look for job B (or C or D). They go where the money is, which is no different than any other professional. And Michael will be no different.

I doubt they will kill him off. But I would rather they get him to wonderland and let him stay there in the background. And preferably after they resolve the Ana storyline that they opened up when they made him a regular in the first place.
