Will Trent Season 4: Showrunners Discuss Shocking Death And Impact On Wilbur

The fourth season of Will Trent began with a dramatic turn: Greg Germann’s character, James Ulster – who once claimed to be Will’s father – broke out of prison with the help of a young, volatile inmate. The ensuing search for Ulster led to conflict between Will and his real father, Sheriff Caleb Roussard (played by Yul Vazquez), and his colleagues worried about how personally Will was taking the case. The situation escalated when Ulster kidnapped Caleb’s youngest son – and Will’s half-brother – demanding a trade, and then faked their deaths to mislead the GBI.
